The author of the book- The Last Casino begins our show by explaining what it was like growing up in NY right after WWII. Ralph takes about an incident as a young kid fishing that shook him and led to him seeing a movie in a way you more than likely have not. We hear a great story about Ralph being a shoe salesman that led to get some inside tips on horse betting that at first was very lucrative. At age of 19, he left NY for LA and ended up meeting several movie stars and becoming friends with Lee Marvin. In 1958, Ralph drove thru Las Vegas and basically never left. His first experience is a must listen as he meets up with two French showgirls at the El Rancho Casino. Ralph talks about meeting and his relationships with Elvis, Chuck Norris, and Colonel Tom Parker. (All great stuff). Did he know when went to work at the Dunes Casino that it was run by the mob and did he ever see anyone skimming money? Why the job of working in the baccarat was wanted by many in the casino industry? After a few developments at this position his tire was slashed and what he found in the trunk of his car! We end the show with hearing how he brought championship boxing back to Atlantic City in 1980-1982 and bringing the Playboy Centerfolds to his casino and a funny story about a call from Hugh Hefner. Links:The Last Casino Website: http://www.thelastcasino.net/Last Casino Book: https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/1482378469/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o04_s00?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1Copy of the telegram from Meyer Lansky: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1FL-WQ8ogRL-QnKKC8tAh_DFWeZdXq1Yw/view?usp=sharingFollow us on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beforethelightspodcast/Reflection Bay Golf Club: https://reflectionbaygolf.com/Join Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/beforethelightsBefore the Lights Merchandise: https://www.beforethelightspod.com/merch Extra 5:Hear Ralph’s relationship with Redd Foxx and the gambling habit Redd hadA funny story about Ralph and Redd Foxx at the craps tableAsking for an autograph from Elvis and what he sent himHow he met and his relationship with astronaut Buzz Aldrin Support the showFollow the show on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/beforethelightspodcast/Follow the show on Face Book: https://www.facebook.com/beforethelightspodcast/Follow the show on Tik Tok: https://www.tiktok.com/@beforethelightspodcast?lang=enFollow Tommy on Face Book: https://www.facebook.com/tcanale3Rate &amp; Review: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/before-the-lights/id1501245041Email the host: beforethelightspod@gmail.com
