PIONEER SALOON • Goodsprings, Nevada, July 1998
Nothing beats a cold beer after a sunny day in the desert, so we headed into the Pioneer. Its America's only remaining all-tin structure and, as we discovered, a haven for bikers. We didn't feel very welcome. The waitress banged our drafts down and said "Two bucks". Never looked at us again. We think we know why there were no doors on the bathroom stalls. That way no one can sneak up on you and shoot you while you're indisposed.
