Phil Villapiano, the Jersey Shore kid who became a Super Bowl champion linebacker for the Oakland Raiders, is coming home to sign his new memoir at Val's Tavern in Rumson (NJ) on Sunday, November 8, from 1 to 3 p.m.
Fans who stay after the signing can watch the Raiders play the 49ers with Villapiano himself at 4:25 p.m. It's a rare chance to hear stories from one of the most beloved players in Raiders history, a few miles from where he grew up.
