Stopped by a little town today called Langtry, TX. Founded by a character named Judge Roy Bean and named after his supposed sweetheart, Lilly Langtry. She never even visited Langtry until a year after Judge Bean died. Judge Bean made his fame and fortune by doing such things as sponsoring a fight that was illegal in TX. But when the Rangers showed up they could do nothing because the fight was being held on the south side of the Rio Grande. He was also known for recessing court proceedings to tend to his other interest, the Saloon and Billiard Hall

This is the second Saloon as the first one burnt down. The first one was also Judge Bean's home.




No swinging doors on this Saloon.


Second half of the building, Billiard Hall entrance around the cornor to the right. No entry from the Bar?


Can't stay away from the Bar!


View from the Bar.



This is a copy of the House and Courthouse Judge Bean built after the fire. It is only one room.
