The Mob Ordered Sammy Davis Jr Off Stage — Dean Martin's Response Shocked Vegas

#mobstories #ratpack #mafiahistory
The Sands Hotel, Las Vegas. The room is packed. Dean Martin is on stage, the crowd eating out of his hand.
Then a powerful mob boss stands up and points at Sammy Davis Jr sitting in the front row.
"Get that guy out of here. I don't want to look at him while I'm eating."
The room went silent. Everyone knew what this meant. In 1960s Vegas, the mob's word was law. And Sammy Davis Jr — no matter how famous — was still a Black man in a white man's world.
Dean Martin stopped singing. Walked to the edge of the stage. And said six words that could have ended his career.
"He stays, or I go."
This is the true story of the night Dean Martin risked everything for his friend.
