There basically weren't any rackets operated there. The men, some of whom were inducted members, generally just chose to retire to Arizona with Joe Bonanno when he left NYC.

A few ran small businesses like bakeries, etc. But "technically speaking" there was no formal "crew" and there were no "rackets" per se.

Only Joe's two idiot sons, got involved with a few stupid criminal acts. But all in all, it was over for them! (whatever connections Joe still had and whatever he may have done separately was just that, separate from any crew activity per se).
