It was a ten minute part. And to the best of my knowledge, the only fictional character with a statue dedicated to him is Rocky Balboa. And even though Balboa is a far more iconic character, there was a lot of controversy over it.

No, y'see, I think it's irony, or satire. Remember Hyman Roth said this was a great man, but there isn't so much as a statue or even a plaque of him, so ... ahh, never mind! uhwhat

Would be better if people were pledging money for the statue/plaque. Irony works better if you pay for it out of your own pocket.

Michael learned the lesson well. That Vito Corleone Medical Center in GF III is impressive.

Pay for it? A fan with a petition can steal more than a dozen men with guns ... or something like that.

For years now I've watched several History Channel and Discovery Channel (and other network presentations including Pawn Stars) about Siegel and the Flamingo Hotel. They still perpetuate the myth that "the city he invented was Las Vegas". They perpetuate the myth that the hotel's name was Virginia Hill's nickname. They neglect the origination role of Charles Wilkerson.

I guess such inaccuracies make good copy. Rather than a plaque for Moe Green, how about one for the networks?
