This Main Street location is traditionally identified with the saloon where Wild Bill Hickok was shot while playing poker in 1876. The original structure burned in 1879 and the exact historic footprint has been debated, so OddWay should present the stop as the commemorated/traditional location rather than a surviving original saloon.
