  fantastic! but noticed the audio is very low in the old news stories, you gotta match it to the show (same audio levels as hosts audio)

  As someone who came to Vegas in 1983, I watched Channel 8 news as my local news source, and I remember seeing all of this on the news at the time.  Good times!  And, sorry, George, but I'm getting major giggles looking at your hair!

  <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SrkuSWP0Aic&amp;t=1068">17:48</a> Some sources claim Rosenthal was an informant as early as the 1960s. He was arrested in Florida and supposedly flipped to stay out of prison. Alan Glick, the frontman for the casinos, was also rumored to have been an informant. There’s a reason those guys never saw time behind bars.

  My family’s been here since 1944 and my Great Grandfather knew people.

  I felt sorry for Frank Rosenthal at the end, the mod outed him as the fall guy and tried to kill him with a bomb of all things... in the end, he died alone in Florida... CASINO was an excellent film based on him and the way the whole mod involvement happened at the stardust...

  As fascinating as it is horrible - was in Chicago at the time &amp; remember the Newscast&apos;s on Ch 2 - at least what those guys was doing was DEF ILLEGAL, what the Corporates are doing these days is supposedly legit... &nbsp;Love George - this is a great show.

  Definitely Geri&apos;s biker friends did it. her death and the attempt on Lefty was too close for it not to be related.

  I’m sorry but I still believe and have heard small talk that either Tony, the outfit, Kansas City, who had ties to California, Hollywood biker gangs they had something to do with her demise I know there was a lot of hear on Tony but so many people connected to him. She had a lot she could have given up, she knew a lot and fuckin around with Tony that was a HUGE problem for Tony so just trace the steps of who benefited the most with her gone!!
