One story that many people may not know is how Carlito Fuente and José Blanco met.

On July 24, Carlito and José were guests on Prime Time Episode 312. One question we asked Carlito and José is how they met. It turns out their friendship blossomed 35 years ago when they participated in a very competitive softball league. At the time José was working for Presidente Beer. Carlito described those days as being a rowdy time for him. When an attempt was made to remove Arturo Fuente from the league, José came to the rescue by convincing everyone they would sell more beer by having Fuente participate.

Here is the story in this short video:
