Nice posting Bugsy...what is very interesting, but not widely known or appreciated, is the fact the Pittsburgh family was truly that...all family, either related by blood or by marriage. This caused the # of made guys to be small...however, there were a large # of associates who acted and continue to act as though they are made members. This has enabled what is left to continue business as usual. To my knowledge, they continue to control the majority of gambling and continue to have some union influence..especially with LIUNA...along with the Buffalo family?
