[quote $tevie]Are you sure he wasn't making a joke?
There's a very famous line in Casablanca where Captain Renault says "I'm shocked, shocked to find that gambling is going on in here!" Are you sure he wasn't riffing on that? Because the "only happened in New York and New Jersey" line sounds pretty facetious as well.
I would like to hear that part of the interview for myself before passing judgment, to be honest.
He would have to be the king of deadpan humor if he was making a joke. He went on to talk about listening in on wiretaps of mobsters. I'm pretty sure he was serious.
Maybe he never watched The Godfather...
