According to Wikipedia, Joey LaMotta is still living at age 88.

However, other websites state he died in 1991, such as this one below:

I can't seem to find any info on his whereabouts or an obituary, which would confirm or deny either way.
Does anyone know?

Look up Doug Stanhope. He has a bit about LaMotta and his girlfriend coming over his house to watch a football game a few years ago. Then he went to a play/show featuring LaMotta and his girlfriend. here is a link with a recent interview (2013) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zcFB5r1vdfA
shareI don't like that. For the stuff it shows in this movie he should be rotting in prison.

Just an fyi. In the movie Joey is an alagram of different real life people.
For example, it was Jakes best friend that had the thing going on with his wife. Not his brother.
