Cowboy Bar has been serving outlaws in Wyoming for 119 years
February 12, 2012/
With an estimated population of 1,800 people, seven saloons, 11 brothels and absolutely no law enforcement, Meeteetse http://www.meeteetsewy.com/index.php?page=dining was a destination during the early part of the last century – a place to earn a living for many small businessmen and sportin’ ladies alike, a place for cattlemen off the range and gold-seekers with a day off from the nearby Kirwin mines to relax and be entertained for a short time. The little town at the bottom of the hill was also a sanctuary for the occasional bank robber with a posse hot on his tail after a Cody holdup. The posse would typically turn around when Meeteetse came into sight.
