re: Boardwalk Empire Thread???

The way this show ties into reality or history is crazy. Frank Capone was really shot down in front of the Western Electric plant by plain clothed cops. The newspapers reported that he was reaching for a gun because he thought it was part of O'Banion's north side gang and that's when they blasted him. Love that George (Nelson) is the reason that they have him reach for his gun...

This show has amazing writer's and the story lines are very deep. It's amazing how they constantly intertwine fiction into reality and keep so much truth to the actual history of the early 20s mob scene in NJ,NY and Chicago.

Here's to Eddie. Prost!
