Capone had several scars on his face as a result of a barroom mishap. Frank Gallucio, a Brooklyn thug, was sitting at a table with his sister. Capone, the hotshot, cruised up to her and said something like, "You've got a great ass, and I mean that in the most complimentary way." Gallucio didn't take kindly to that remark, so out came the knife. In one of those gestures that made him famous: Capone later made up with Gallucio and hired him as a bodyguard.
