I live in Chicago, my grandma worked for the spilotro brothers at their restaurant. They paid her really well and she was young at the time. She would always see tony come in and out of the restaurant.
@@deedeeotero4475I’m not too sure, I would have to ask her again. I was at her house for Father’s Day. She lives near river forest though, a lot of mobsters bought their big houses over there
Pretty cool to see Mooney in other locations around the country, did say this would be happening at some point. Great stuff Mooney, you literally have come a long way.
Have camera will travel part 2 - Mooney in Vegas! Great storytelling as always brother. You nailed it on most of the gory details. U flashed Al Capone's picture instead of Giancana. Capone coined the term "Outfit" to describe Chicago's version of Cosa Nostra. By 1979, Giancana had been deceased for 3 + years. Otherwise a totally kick ass dispatch. Keep KILLING it! (metaphorically of course.....😂)
Loving the videos took it to vegas good stuff brother from Scotland my sister is an American citizen so I’ve been out a good few times bk out in September can’t wait… keep up the good work bro🏴 🇺🇸
Great video Mooney! One problem, you showed the wrong house lol! Frank showed me the house in 2018 when I went on his tour with him. It’s the white house that you see when you first get out of the car, at 10:27. The brick wall you see surrounds the pool they tossed him in. To clarify, you see the tree in the yard, and the short red fence around the property, and the tan brick block wall that surrounds the pool. That’s the right house!! If you’re still in Vegas, go back and film it. Thanks Mooney!
Definitely, as an English man who hasn't visited your shores yet these "boots on the ground" geographical insights work wonderfully well with the countless books and films I've digested over the years and obviously not everything happens in NYC 🗽. Best wishes gents. 🇬🇧👍🇺🇸☘️
@@MOONEYDashCamI'm from England,and no doubt you have heard about the Kray twins and their reputation. But they tried to muscle in on other city patches in Newcastle and Manchester but were sent packing. Something the mainstream fail to mention and film producers who sensationalise things.
great vid Mooney. I enjoy your videos and the knowledge you share. Hope you keep expanding your horizons and head to some other mob cities like Chicago, Detroit, etc.
Wow, another great one, Mooney! I ask myself in each one why in the world does anyone get themselves into this life? In their world, there is no real loyalty
Hey, great video. Just to clear things up. In Franks own words "half-load" bullets are normal bullets with a lot of gun powder removed to make less noíce for at hit in a suburb, but the result was that they did not penetrate the skull, so more or less useless. The guy that provided the ammo fucked up.
The “Outfit” also took into consideration the desires of the Irish and Jewish mobs. With such differing influences, they weren't “family,” thus “Outfit” worked better. As per Google. Great video
The movie "Casino" did take some liberties with the Spilotro murder scene. The Spilotro Brothers were actually lured to a meeting in a house in Bensenville, Illinois with the promise of a mob promotion for Tony, while Michael was supposed to become a “made” member of the Outfit, but they were subsequentially ambushed and murdered and then buried in a cornfield in Indiana!
I was at the house where Frank Cullotta killed Jerry Lisner with Adam Flowers, Frank's tour partner and interviewer. Half loads are cartridges that have been modified by removing some of the gunpowder to make them quieter. The problem is that they are weaker due to less powder. The Outfit did that often. Good video.
Thanks for posting a vid of an area that makes sense and looks familiar to me. I guess all of the neighbors were at work or out doing something because, in a neighborhood like that, there's no way that much shooting wouldn't attract attention. As would a guy sitting in a car in the hot sun. One normal shot would probably have been less obvious. Had "Casino" been a Tarentino movie instead of Scorsese there would have been a dark comedy scene of a botched murder and two heavy set Chicago hit men jumping into a pool with the bleeding body of a man they had just killed "to get clean". Good thing that in the desert you'd dry off in a few minutes.
Spil-o-tro is correct. It was a big source of confusion so their dad just went with Spil-ah-tro. I read this in Bill Roemer’s big The Enforcer. Roemer had asked this question to Michael Spilotro.
Outfit is another word for group, or a party of people, a company. Half loads are just that, half loads…meaning the shell casing is only half full of gun powder so it won’t be as loud but you have to be point blank or dang near point blank to somebody to kill them.
We done mate down in sin city, all the history there with Bugsey Seigal. Frank Cullota was a consultant on the Casino film so remember watching a hit on the film when I was a kid thinking this bloke looks so real he was it was Cullota he was in the film doing a couple of hits think one of the hits he reenacted he was a part of at that the time how weird is that. I hope UA-cam are paying you enough with the views to have a proper time in Vegas. You’re the Guvnor !!!’ Have a great time
Love the Casino, and Tony and his brother Michael were kill in the basement in Bensenville, Illinois. I live about 5 min were Tony live as a kid, and 10 min from were he and his brother live in Oak Park, Illinois. And about 5 min were Frank went to High School. Basically, I live in Elmwood Park, Illinois were some mobster live. Great video @Mooney
MOONEY have you heard or know about the “Crazy” Sal DeSarno case of him killing a cop and dragging him in Canarsie? Also that was a picture of Al Capone not Sam Giancana
I think the term “outfit” is a spin-off of the term “zoot suit” which is in reference to the snappy pin striped patterned suits and hats the mobsters of the early ‘30’s wore! 🤔
10:40 I've been to that house also. Pretty sure the son still owns it. Saw a guy outside that looked just like the dead guy and looked up the house's sale history and it hasnt been sold in decades.
It's been the outfit since capone. My understanding is it was slang that stuck. Example. I'm with capones outfit. Again, this is just my understanding.
Half loads are not blanks, they are just loaded with half the normal amount of gun powder. They were used due to being quieter than full loads. They didn’t always pack a big enough punch to do the job.
The Spillotro brothers were friends with actor Larry Manetti , Tony’s younger brother appeared on the TV series Magnum PI .. many people don’t know this
A half load is a bullet that either has half of its gun powder taken out of the shell or all the gun powder taken out of shell Using just the power of the primer to shoot the round
I know about when Frank did the hit in Vegas! I did not know the gun had blanks! for a life time gangster that sure was a rookie mistake! I wonder when he reloaded if he checked for blanks! That's funny in a weird way! And like always! 👍🏽
Half load, its just half the amount of gun powder in the bullets casing. If that bullet normally moves 1200 ft a second, now it'll only move 600 ft a second.. the benefit? In theory it should be much more quiet.
I live in Chicago, my grandma worked for the spilotro brothers at their restaurant. They paid her really well and she was young at the time. She would always see tony come in and out of the restaurant.
Which restaurant was that?
That’s super interesting

@@JK-fx3vk yes I know.
Lived in Oak Park a long time, not too far from Momo’s house.
Tony Spilotro was born in 39 he would have been 84 today is that your granny s age?

It may have made my trip a little bit less relaxing but it was well worth it
I love all the behind the scenes here. Was just watching Casino last week. Enjoyed the Frank coverage too. Keep up the awesome work 👍🩷

Cool, let me know if and when your in town. I can help you with a Chicago outfit tour. I used to go to all the major mob trials in Chicago!
Excellent video! Love the Las Vegas edge
It’s definitely a change of scenery

That picture of Sam Giancana at 6:24 is actually Al Capone.

@@MOONEYDashCam I thought it might be an intentional Easter egg.
Good one Mooney, everybody is familiar with this from the movie Casino. Nice work!

Thank you Mooney for this video
Thank you for watching this video
❤❤❤ these stories from Vegas! Mooney, you need your own show!
Really enjoying the Las Vegas stories, Thanks!
I enjoyed making them so I’m glad you’re liking them
great vid Mooney. I enjoy your videos and the knowledge you share. Hope you keep expanding your horizons and head to some other mob cities like Chicago, Detroit, etc.
“Half loads” he was referring to were probably subsonic .22 rounds. They have less powder in them and the are quieter than full power rounds.
Okay that makes much more sense
No they weren't manufactured subs ..they literally took half the powder out to make less noise was the thinking .. Dumb ides
Thanks a ton Mooney - great video! How long were you in Vegas! Really missing the Truck!
I was there for 5 days I missed the truck too
Mooney great job but @6:20 that's not Sam Giancana that's Al Capone.
I really enjoy your channel. Appreciate you sir 👊
Another good one Mooney 👍🤝
Great video brother keep Killin the game..

How you liking Vegas, Mooney? Thanks for another great video
Vegas is nice I like the weather and the food
Keep them coming Mooney

@Mooney hows the drivers in Vegas, compared to back home?…
They seemed pretty tame it was way more relaxed driving there

Thanks for that, I caught myself wondering about it but never looked it up

@@MOONEYDashCam Yeah, the same thing happened to him in "Goodfellas", now that you mention it!
Correct. They weren't killed in that cornfield. They were killed in that basement, though still beaten to death as depicted in the film also.
@@MOONEYDashCam😄
The part where in Casino where Tony stabs a guy with a pen in the neck happened at a carwash on Harlem Ave in Oak Park or Chicago.

Great video. I gotta say, it really makes me wonder who my neighbors are so I have become a nicer neighbor cuz ya never know
Pronounced "Spil-AH-tro", not "Spil-OH-tro". Also, the Chicago mafia was called "the outfit". That was literally what it was referred to as.
This "Spil-low-tro" thing is driving me nuts! Come on! Spil-Lot-tro!
Yes! We all know it was called the outfit! but thanks anyway!

Mooney still in Vegas? What's Mooney been doing at night, outside of all this? Do they still have ESCORT menus on the hotel room nightstands?
Lol
Are half loads when there is less gunpowder??
Yes but when I looked it up the only think that came up were blanks
How did you find all this information about him? Was this in the movie Casino?
Loved it

“Half Loads” is when the person removes half of the original gun powder. It makes the bullet a lot weaker, but reduces the noise greatly as well.
Half loads aren't blanks the rounds are just emptied out half it's gun powder. Typically to be more quiet
👍
That's Al Capone's picture you put up....

Where are new videos? They are all at least 10 months old?
LETS FLIP THIS AROUND AND GET INTO IT
Unfortunately I’m so old the only thing I can shoot are half loads
😂😂
I would assume he's saying his bullets are reloads and low grain!
Half load is when you reload them with half the powder. Less noise, and helps with over penetration.
“At night, you couldn’t see the desert that surrounds Las Vegas. But it’s in the desert where lots of the town’s problems are solved.”
Half loads are not blanks, they are just loaded with half the normal amount of gun powder. They were used due to being quieter than full loads. They didn’t always pack a big enough punch to do the job.

I think half loads I heard him say this before about trying to Make a supresor and Make the ammo more quiet or something
Half load, its just half the amount of gun powder in the bullets casing. If that bullet normally moves 1200 ft a second, now it'll only move 600 ft a second.. the benefit? In theory it should be much more quiet.
