Cuban slang for sure...although maybe that is used in other country too.

Is it?? Does this refer to a verb?? bolá??

I didn't know, actually I asked Carlos to come over and tell his story...but then he said that it was not Mexican at all, as you have just confirmed.

Never heard this expression, and tell you the truth, Lara, if I had heard this, I wouldn't have known the meaning.

By the way, in Spain cuñá (stress on the a) is slightly slangy for cuñada, so I was, just by chance, on the right track.

But this "bolá" still confuses me. So does bolero/boletín...in this sentence. There is no verb?? Or is bolá a verb?
