Comparing apples to apples and going by the latest FBI estimates, even the smallest NY family is four times the size of the Outfit.

Vegas? Since we're going way back in time (Outfit fanboys often have to do that) the Genovese family rivaled Chicago in Vegas up through much of the 1960's. But after that, Chicago was certainly the dominant family in town. However, while control of a Las Vegas casino is glamorous, and certainly one of the more famous parts of mob lore, the skim from the Argent casinos and the Tropicana in the 1970's and 1980's wasn't that much. At least if you go with the figures Angelo Lonardo quoted.

When Chicago had LA? Actually, LA had LA. Chicago simply had a certain degree of influence from 2,000 miles away.

Chicago may have thought it would control JFK after they swung voted for him in Illinois. But RFK going after the mob with a vengeance certainly showed they didn't. Whether they were behind the JFK assassination is another long debate.

Marilyn Monroe? Frank Sinatra? Are you kidding me?

See what I mean when I talk about these Chicago guys? whistle
