More When the Mob Ran Vegas: Showgirl Stories, High-Stakes Poker, Sin City, Sinatra and Suitcases Full of Money
Vegas like you’ve never seen, tales you’ve never heard–until now
Those were the days when you drove to Vegas from Iowa or Ohio or took a junket flight from New York. The Missus would wear her best dress and mink coat, find her lucky slot machine, and you the hot craps table. Maybe you’d slip the maître d’ a couple bucks to sit at an A table in the showroom for the big production numbers with showgirls and plenty of feathers and not much else. Or you’d get to see Elvis at the International or Sinatra at the Sands.
