Rico is a biker/chili maker. He was a Closer in Papa's Taco Mia!, until Freezeria, when Kahuna took his place. Boomer later replaced Kahuna. Rico is a chubby male who loves and makes chili, and hopes to one day own his own Chiliria. His chili became a topping in Pastaria and can only be used during Chilifest.
Flipdeck Info
This tough biker arrived with an attitude as a Closer in Papa’s Taco Mia!, but after a relaxing vacation on Calypso Island he started to mellow out. When he’s not visiting Papa’s restaurants, he’s riding around the country and sampling chili at various roadhouses. Rico is perfecting his own original chili recipe, and hopes that customers will one day line up to try a bowl of his chili!

April Fool's Day Jokes
Rico appears in both of Flipline Studio's April Fools blog posts.
Rico's Chiliria
Many people thought that 'Rico's Chiliria' was an upcoming game, but it was just an April Fool's Day joke.
Rowdy Rico: When Chili Attacks!
Like last year's Rico's Chiliria, Rowdy Rico: When Chili Attacks! is an April Fools Joke said to be released on "April 31, 2013". Since April has 30 days, a date like April 31 does not exist; implying that Flipline will never release the game. This post was listed in the Holiday category, implying it was an April Fool's joke. His appearence in the Rowdy Rico: When Chili Attacks! poster is actually an unlockable outfit for Rico in Papa Louie 2: When Burgers Attack!
Trivia
- His flipdeck picture is similar to the April Fools Chiliria picture.
- He is one of the two obese characters to wear glasses/sunglasses, the other being Kahuna. #RicosFat
- From Cupcakeria onwards, his outfit changed.
- His weapon of choice in Papa Louie 2: When Burgers Attack! is a can of chili.
