305. Miami's Full of Wannabe Batista's and His Heir
How wrong you are! Miami is full of wannabe Batistas. Even 33 years after his death, his name is dear to the Miami mafiosi and their spawn. You will often see his hideous visage over the cash boxes in Miami restaurants, usually accompanied by some santeria offering for his return.

The heir apparent is Batista's grandson, who was appointed to the Florida Supreme Court by Jeb Bush.
