The opening-next-year MM just launched a site to get folks amped about the museum seeking to set the record straight on Vegas' deep-rooted organized crime history, with old-school-photo-accompanied slides discussing mobster Bugsy Siegel (the brains behind the Flamingo re-opening, and hence, the Strip), a recording of a mafia induction ceremony, and the truth about casino "skimming" -- where the mob doesn't report casino earnings to the IRS, not how they decide to get "healthy", and stop using 2% with their Honey Bunches of Oats.
