Cakes beat arias: Charles Boccia of 3800 White Plains Rd., the Bronx who, after 35 years of baking, attempted an operatic career, 1927.
After overcoming several difficulties, he got a private tryout before Titta Ruffo, the great bass of the Metropolitan Opera, who predicted a great career for him. However, Boccia decided to return to his large shop in the Bronx—more secure than singing.

After the last C^2 Challenge, I feel Petanque is the one game other than Fifa we can put on Lestappen fanfics where Charles loses.
Also here's the italian/English translation of three of the most hilarious things he says to be used for the future.
"Dai! Ma non è dritta questa hospitality" - > "Come on, this hospitality is not planar"
"Non capisco la mia boccia" - >"I don't understand my ball"
"Non funziona niente" - > "There's nothing that works (for me to score a point)"
I can just see them playing and Charles switching to radom chaotic Italian and Max is so confused but he's winning so he just enjoys it.
