It was open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week - even on holidays. The New York Times called it, "the wildest, roughest, honky tonk between Basin Street Technical Details and the Barbary Coast." The longest card game here was said to have lasted 24 hours a day for eight years, five months, and three days. The famous "bird cages" where ladies of the night sold pleasures to cowboys and miners - are still intact.
