131 – Gunfight at the O.K. Corral

Ever wonder what actually happened during that infamous “Gunfight at the O.K. Corral” [which seems to pop up in trivia situations a lot more than you’d expect]? Don’t worry, Pardnuh, Julia’s wobblin’ jaw has you covered. We skedaddle over to Tombstone, Arizona to discuss the events of October 26, 1881 at 3:00pm […and you know what that means…]. Later, enjoy a quiz called “Um, Actually…”!
