Organized crime figures have many colorful nicknames...Eddie the Killer, Sammy the Assassin, Dopey Benny, Peg-Leg Jimmy, Three-Finger Brown, and so on.
Another popular nickname was “Lucky.”
The four hoods below each had this nickname. Two operated in New York City, one in Buffalo, while the fourth guy operated in New Jersey.
By this time you guys know what Malavita means when he says, “You know the drill.”
Your job is to identify each man by listing his REAL “first and last name” and match the (letter) of his nickname with the corresponding (number) of the area he was affiliated with. For instance, you could say C-2, and his real name was Frank Russo.
