The Feast of San Gennaro is among the most popular Italian heritage festivals in America taking place in New York City for ten days in Mid September annually.

For the entire history of the Bonanno Crime Family up until 2002, the Mafia group NEVER had a cooperator in their ranks. That was until July of that year when family capo Frank Coppa decided to flip and testify against the upper echelon of the Bonannos. Coppa would directly testify against boss Joseph "Big Joey" Massino as well as various others. He was extremely destructive to the future of the Family. Coppa lived a wildly interesting life and had been around the Mob since his early 20's.

The original Fulton Fish Market opened on the lower half of Manhattan in the early 1820's. For nearly 200 years it operated as one of the biggest East Coast fish markets in the world. Sadly though when money is made and profits are in the millions and billions, the Mafia shows up and today I detail the control the Mob had on the Fulton Fish Market and the players that made millions ultimately in the early 2000's closing the original market and moving it to the Bronx to another market that was also controlled by the Lucchese Crime Family.

He was extremely respected by many Mob Families and was willing to do whatever he was told. DISCLAIMER: My videos and podcasts are meant for entertainment and educational use.
