Piero Manetta has been sitting behind the Canucks bench at Rogers Arena for two decades. Fans have long speculated about who he is, what he does, and why he looked right at home with guys like Odjick and Rypien. Hear Piero tell his own journey to Canucks' fame, how he gets stopped around town, and how he's become part of an ever-changing culture in Canucks club seats.

I sat with him back in 2007 and he was the nicest guy. He even traded seats with me so that I could be on TV. Stand up guy for sure. Forza Piero

Man, great to hear the story behind the legend. Next to the Green Men, perhaps this is the most legendary Canucks fan out there.

I thought I was the only one seeing this😀, I always liked his company because he always looked comfortable no matter what, but he also looks intimidating like someone in the mafia 😂, "This guy has connections".

Ah Piero is also a man of his word, Great to see Matt and Blake behind the bench tonight, and a fine game indeed.

Started going to the Lennox Pub because this guy used to wear their jacket. Don't regret it.

Piero Stallone. Been wondering what this guys story was for a long time. Always speculated he was some kind of mafia boss.😂

He says he's just a working man which is true but still, those seats must cost a fair bit. I guess it is detectable

@mvd4436 construction companies often get season tickets to butter up clients

construction companies also make a SHIT load of money-i’d think his family is more than comfortable. I know a few who regularly net an avg of 500k+ / month after business costs. There’s a lot of money in vancouver if you can find it.

This is the best concept for an interview in years. Always wondered who this guy was.

Soooooo wild I was just watching the Game tonight and this guy shows up on camera again and I think to myself, "fuck, this guy is always making his way on screen all the time, I wonder what his story is?" What are the odds the very first KZfaq video I see right after the game is this! Nice touch guys, props for finding something different but very interesting to talk about for once that's still Canucks focused and not just rumors. Been wanting for YEARS for talk shows/interviews to not just have the same conversations/questions day in and day out.

Great job having him on, I always wondered myself. Hells Angel? 😂

Wow, great interview. I was always so curious about him!!! And I was shocked how fast his kid grew up after not seeing them for a while, it was like I witnessed his kid grow up in front of my eyes.

It’s funny I just watched the Canucks game and I saw Blake behind the bench and I thought “hmm that’s usually where that guy always sits, maybe he and the guys from Sekeres and Price know each other?”. Well, I guess this interview explains it all lol. Also good job Blake for not picking your nose on camera

BLING GUY! This dude is part of the team 100% always interested in who's sitting with Bling guy. 👍

Funny how easy it is to stereotype. I thought he was probably gangster but the cool kind that takes his kid to the game when he isn’t busy murdering.

Honestly, in 20 more years when he stops coming to games, retire that seat and put a statue in.

Trying to figure out who Torts made cry. There were no fins, let alone young fins on the team that year. on the team that year. It wouldn't have been a Swede since that was only Sedins and Henrik. For other non-north Americans, we've got Yannick (couldn't be him) and then Yannick Webber, Raphael Diaz, and Nick Jensen. I think it's almost certainly Jensen.

I think I remember that game. He tore into Jannick Hansen on the bench once. I was surprised because he was always such a buzz saw.
