lol you're kidding right? I'm sure Gigante was in contact with Chicago guys but no fuckin way did they "teach" him anything. That guy was as smart as they come, the bathrobe, muttering and slippers was all him. So don't delude yourself. He's the reason why the west side is number 1, not your damn homeboys



Chicago was the first family to use front bosses

during a meetings chicago could have advised them to insulate themselves more

meaning during the 60s, 70s
