A craze had hit the gambling world. With the recent return of Uncle Joe Ligambi to the states he had started taking action on his long standing numbers game again. Uncle Joe had run the numbers almost as long as he had been a gangster as it was one of the first rackets he dabbled in as a young man. Uncle Joe had seen all the money rolling in from back door casinos and gambling dens and wanted a piece of the pie.

The numbers game was an easy game that took wagers daily on the closing numbers of the stock market. It offered bettors from all walks of life a chance to win big with massive payouts. 

The numbers game allowed people to place bets on the last three digits of the DOW, NASDAQ and S&P 500 each day at the close of the market. Uncle Joe took numbers from numerous daily bettors as he offered payouts at 100:1 and 50:1 odds depending on the numbers you picked. Practically none of his fellow mafiosi could resist. The numbers game was inexpensive to play and offered bettor's yet another possible source of income with potential for big payouts if they were lucky enough to hit their numbers.

There were many who were still not familiar with this traditional Cosa nostra game but its popularity was on the rise once again throughout the states.

StripheCorelli was sitting at his oak desk watching the sunset over Philadelphia as he thought about the daily numbers game and how it was one of his favorite ways to risk his ill-gotten gains. He had been a long time player in hopes to hit it big and then parlay his winnings into something legitimate, after all that was the way gangsters were supposed to operate. He had considered a liquor store or maybe a car wash but he knew they were all good investments.

He opened the window a bit and you could hear the foot traffic below and the hustle and bustle of the city. There were people crossing the street and doors opening and closing in the various businesses below. You could smell hotdogs from a small stand across the street and sometimes even hear the metal clanking as he served customers.

Striphe wanted more money and he wanted it quick. It was for that exact reason that he wagered daily with Uncle Joe.

He was at heart a man who loved money and everything that was involved with it. He would often sit at his desk late at night planning out his picks for the entire week, betting the max wagers daily. He knew that at 100:1 odds it only took one hit and he knew he couldn't afford not to play

Through word of mouth and friends introducing friends, Madness took a trip to the big city with StripheCorelli. After a quick sit down in a local pizzeria with the man many call "Leader of the Streets", Joseph_Ligambi. It became agreed that Madness would become the Philadelphia Ambassador for Uncle Joe's long running numbers game in New York. 

Spreading the word of the numbers game throughout the city, collecting any bets placed from the locals or those visiting the city.
