Welcome to Niagara Falls and the home of the Mafia’s longest reigning, deadliest, most powerful mob boss.
The Magaddino Crime Family
If you think Luciano, Gotti, or Capone was the biggest mobster in America, you’re wrong. Stefano “The Undertaker” Magaddino was more powerful, had a bigger territory and was deadlier than all of them. Magaddino was unlike many mob bosses, yet born of the same mold. Smart, conniving, deceitful, rich, yet he took care of many people in the Niagara Falls area.
Because he was so good at what he did he is practically unknown to the American public. The Internet and many books are ripe with misinformation they all insist on repeating.
This tour will bring you the most accurate information on Magaddino and his crew, including his son Peter, his brother Antonino (Antonio or Nino), and many others who vied to control this mafia family. Covering three countries, five states, and five decades, Big Steve was really the boss of bosses in Cosa Nostra. We will tell you their history as well as law enforcement’s efforts over the years to quash their businesses. Buffalo Police, Niagara Falls Police, New York State Police, and the F.B.I. all had a hand in working against the Magaddino’s.
Painstakingly researched by author and historian Mike Rizzo, only on The Mob ToursTM, a 90-minute guided bus tour in Niagara Falls, will you learn the truth
about his life, his legacy, and the F.B.I.’s determined effort to take him out.
Tour cost: $39.99 Per Person.
