"Moosey" Caputo's original Federal Gaming Stamp was issued to the Jungle Inn in Hubbard, Ohio. As long as the club operators paid Federal Tax, they were not in violation of federal law. Thus their only concern was state and local police. Hard to believe that they mostly got along with them ;-)

After the Jungle Inn was raided and closed, the stamp, (license) was transferred to the clubs on Rt. 30 in West VA. I believe that Club 30 was the first to use "Moosey's" stamp. It then went to the Jockey Club. By then Jo Jo literally owned the Sheriff and even the Governor. Joe built a nice home on the Club 30 property on Rt. 30 and became a resident of West Va. He always complained that he was given West VA. license plate #2. The always said that he paid the Governor more that the state and he should have the Governor's plate #1.

The Jockey Club finally got raided by the Feds for transporting people over state lines for illegal activities. Most of the casino workers lived in Pittsburgh PA. and drove back and forth everyday. Joe's right hand, Zebo, was smart enough and also built a house not far from the clubs and became a resident of West VA.

After the Jockey Club closed they made one last attempt to operate a big time casino in West VA. A couple of miles down Rt. 30, on the way to downtown Chester, they built a stand-alone building. It's was designed like an old western saloon and appropriately named The Red Dog. It operated for a couple of years and closed when Jo Jo went to "school" in Lexington, Ky. Their last club, operated by Zebo, was on a side road off Rt.2 almost directly across from Waterford Park. It didn't last too long.
