In 1987, Dino's son Dean Paul was killed in a plane crash, and Dino took it hard. Frank thought that getting the group back together and going out on the road was just what Dino needed (and Sammy too, who was in dire financial straits). The "Together Again Tour" was announced to great fanfare, but Dino only made it a week then packed it in. Thus was the ignominous end of the Rat Pack.
The Rat Pack lives on in a funny way: Any time a group of actors, singers or other celebrities gain fame or notoriety together, they're called "The [word that rhymes with rat] Pack"; viz., [[Brat Pack (actors)|Brat Pack]], [[Frat Pack]], [[Eli Roth]]'s "Splat Pack", etc. etc.
If you're feeling nostalgic while in Vegas, go to the Grand Canal Shoppes in the Venetian resort, and stand in what they call the "Oculus", between Kids Karnivale and Marshall Rousso. You are standing right where the stage was in the Copa Room.
