love the term "bagman"...

Ol' Blue eyes was a mob bagman and nearly got busted while smuggling $3.5 million into New York, comedian Jerry Lewis claims in a new exposé on Frank Sinatra.

Customs officers opened a briefcase Sinatra was carrying that contained "three and a half million in fifties," Lewis told the authors of "Sinatra: The Life."

But Sinatra was saved when people in the crowd behind him began pushing and shoving, distracting the customs officers, who waved the singer through.
