Here’s the challenge.…

These next seven hoodlums listed below each had the nickname “Big” and represented Families from the east coast to the west coast.

Your job is to identify each man by listing his REAL “first and last name” and match the (letter) of his nickname with the city/state they operated in.

Have at it fellas….

A) Big Vince
B) Big Tony
C) Big Pete
D) Big Phil
E) Big Billy
F) Big Philly
G) Big Paul

1) San Jose, CA
2) Chicago, IL
3) Rockford, IL
4) Elizabeth, NJ
5) Dallas, TX
6) Pittston, PA
7) Tampa, FL

San Jose is Peter "Big Pete" Misuraca, Tampa is Anthony "Big Tony" Esperti and then Big Phil I think would be suspected Dallas member Phillip Bosco, who was probably better known as "Pump"

Like the old saying goes, "Two out of three ain't bad! Lol.

You nailed Peter Misuraca (San Jose) and Anthony Esperti (Tampa)

But Philip Bosco is not the third fella related to this challenge. Still, thats a great start, Joe.

There's just three more to go; Chicago, Rockford and Elizabeth.

PS: And I have complete faith that you guys can do it!
