Why do I not have a clue about anything? The truth about your hero sucks huh? How did he keep the Culinary out of his hotel then? Everyother hotel had the union in place. They sat in front of the old Frontier for six years on a picket line but not the Imperial Pit. Someone told the union to leave him alone and since the union was under the control of Chicago and the only people that had this power were Aiuppa, Cerone, and Accardo. I knew about the party back in '86. Ralphie paid a large fine to keep his license. Do not try and say they could not take his license from him like Earl Strinden tried quoting the 1st Admendment since this does not apply to a gaming license. The only other fine that was handed out larger was to the Stardust for letting Chicago skim the joint and they LOST thier gaming license.
