Tickle me Elmo Armante opened a strip club out in Chicago with the blessing of Chicago , there were many joint ventures in the 90s and 2000s between Chicago and the Bonnanos including the Crazy Horse Strip Club in Vegas with Johnny Green Faracis kid and Rocco Lombardo and Rick Rizzolo.....Joey Lombardo was on tape complaining about Chicago letting in NY Guys how in the old days this would have never happened....


Gotcha. Thanks Louis. So the Bonannos had the blessing of the powers that be to conduct business. Not sure why the outfit would even entertain it. They could have run that shit themselves.
