Today OPA mourns the loss of The Rigger, Louis Giancontieri. To say we lost a great man, would be an understatement. Louis was the lifeblood of OPA.
 
He lived and breathed it. From our early beginnings in Camden NJ, to our greatest heights. Louis was there.
 
He was a great friend. Anyone who met Louis would know. Louis had a special warmth. He’d tell you like it is, but only because he loved you.
 
He was a great mentor. In the hardest of times, Louis was there to hold your hand. He always had your back, and would never steer you wrong.
 
He was full of life lessons, and always had a story. He was a rockstar. And he wasn’t afraid to tell you.
 
Who could ever forget the shows in Patchogue, or the countless times Friday night parties were hijacked by Louis’ rendition of Rock and Roll Hoochie Koo.
 
He was a fearless competitor. One thing you could always count on was Strictly Business being called to the podium. From the Stugots Cup,
 
to the hall of champions there isn’t a major trophy without his finger prints on it. But most of all Louis was a family man.
 
Our hearts bleed for the Giancontieri’s. The 2nd family is here, and our arms are wide open.
 
We’ll miss you.
 
It was an honor and a privilege.
 
Race in Peace V6
