    Did Al Capone hide moonshine under Moose Jaw, Alberta?

    Question #102625. Asked by Hiber. (Jan 29 09 7:03 PM)

    		This says: "If you're traveling to Moose Jaw, you might want to visit the tunnels (reputed to be the moonshine hide-away of gangster, Al Capone), or the Mad Greek Restaurant to sample the dry ribs and sauce."

    		Moose Jaw is actually in Saskatchewan, the province just east of Alberta. While Moose Jaw has fun speculating about Al Capone visiting, this is doubtful- bootlegging was a known activity in Moose Jaw, however. Some tunnels did exist from the Prohibition era and earlier, but alterations have been more recently added for tourism...
