Lugi Lamonica is a tall, muscular, charismatic, intimidating - but cute at the same time - Italian basketball referee that puts up great shows for the cameras, fans and players in Euroleague, Eurobaskets, World Championships, Italian Serie A and everywhere he is invited to.

Lamonica is famous for having an extremely fierce glare in his eyes. An aura of fear eminates from his physique which makes even the most bravest of us, like Dirk Nowitzki, to shiver and piss his pants when confronted with Luigi.

Luigi's motto is:

Luigi Lamonica: making hordes of people rage since 1973!

Some opinions say the Luigi Lamonica is becoming more popular on the internet than the "Chuck Norris facts" because Lamonica shows to be a dangerous man if provoked.

Lamonica doesn't whistle the games, the games whistle to Lamonica.

Of course there is a sad minority of Lamonica haters out there, but the Greek loby is already working on their extermination.
