Before Castro..it was Organized Crime that virtually ran the place....Meyers Lansky was one of the big investors/owners in Cuban Casinos. Southern Florida was known for years as Lansky Land.
The mob was even able to get Joe Kennedy to promise to get Cuba back from Casto and the Communists if they would support JFK in 1960.
Well with the proliferation of gambling in the USA , I don't think Cuba will ever regain the allure it once had...
