Are You Ready For Mob-Con 2013? Rub Shoulders W/Gangsters & Lawmen

Las Vegas is famous for its glitz, entertainment and gambling, but it is also just as famous for its past ties to the Mob.  Vegas’ mob history has been featured in countless movies, documentaries and books and will now have its own Mob Convention, Mob-Con.

Mob-Con 2013 will take place at Palace Station Hotel & Casino September 7 and 8, 2013. For the first time ever, former mobsters, lawmen, true crime writers and historians and people from the entertainment industry will be together in the same place at the same time to talk about "the day."  Attendees will have the opportunity to hear and meet in person the very people they used to read about in the papers or see portrayed on the big screen.
 
Mob-Con 2013 is a presentation of Las Vegas entertainer and businessman Robert George Allen and former mobster Frank Cullotta. They have also teamed with Mob Attraction to further enhance the Mob-Con experience.

“Las Vegas is the ideal city to host Mob-Con (and for many years to come),” Said Robert George Allen, “People are fascinated about the mob and, without the mob Las Vegas would not be what it is today.”

“Anyone who has an interest in the mob will not want to miss this event,” Allen added “Mob-Con is giving the general public unprecedented access to the individuals who were a part of this history.”

The current lineup of guests include:  Frank Cullotta (Chicago Outfit & Hole in the Wall Gang), Tony Montana (Chicago Outfit), Andrew DiDonato (Gambino Family), Frank Calabrese Jr. (Chicago Outfit), Kenji Gallo (Columbo Family), Dennis Arnoldy (FBI), Vito Colucci (Law Enforcement), Denny Griffin (Law Enforcement & Author), Warren Hull (Author), Gary Magnesen (FBI), Gary Jenkins (Law Enforcement), Ronald Fino (FBI/CIA) and Cathy Scott (Author).  More will be announced leading up to the event.
