I've been to Tombstone! Boot Hill, Bird Cage Theater, OK Corral... loved it.


I THINK Petros has as well.

What's the fare compared to the bus, twice? three times? Remember the good old days when you could ride the bus for a few months for $99?
If they can have a bar-car on a train why not a beer disperser on a bus?

And Die in the West





Best book on Tombstone and the Gunfight of the OK Corral. The most detailed blow by blow account of the gunfight and the short history of Tombstone.


No movie has ever done the Gunfight justice. The humanism has been lost.

If it wasn't Oct 26, 1881 why would it matter?


Outstanding MHz.


Historians say the same thing. If not for Oct 26, 1881 it is doubtful that this place would be there today.


But that day did happen and it secured its place in US History because of it. Now we know that at that time Tombstone was the Las Vegas of the west. That the old hotels, saloons, theaters, etc. were once were filled with the best restaurants, stars, gamblers, business men, and dreamers that the times had to offer.
