Colombo *Bonannos have more made members than the Lucchese I would make it a tie between Lukes and Bonannos considering the fact that the latter brugad still has ties to its place of origin in Sicily.

And 28 for Chicago sounds high to me. I don't think they have anywhere near that number. Detroit actually sounds low. The New York Mafia http://youtube.com/mobfiresidechat
