Legendary Outlaws & Bandits of the Wild West

In this collection of true stories from the Old West, we’ll discuss George Parrot, aka Big Nose George – a lesser-known outlaw who had a noose around his neck more times than you'd believe. And that’s just half the story! You’ll never guess how this one ends! Afterward, we’ll hop over to El Paso for a legendary showdown between madams Big Alice Abbot and Etta “The Grasshopper” Clark before discussing the legendary gunfight in Newton, Kansas. And don’t forget about legendary Joaquin Murrieta – the supposed inspiration for the likes of Zorro and Batman. Was Murrieta a righteous freedom fighter or simply a charismatic bandit? Then we’ve got Ed Scarborough, a fearless lawman whose biggest enemies turned out to be himself and a rabid skunk. With cross-dressing, shootouts with bicycles, and daring prison escapes, Ed’s story is about as wild as the West gets. Following Scarborough, we’ll delve into the Colorado cannibal Alfred Packer and his eyebrow-raising story of survival. Finally, we’ll pay a visit to Winslow, Arizona, where an armed robbery by down-and-out cowboys resulted in a literal trip to hell, a bloody gunfight, and an Old West Lazarus rising from the dead for one last sip of whiskey! 0:00 Big Nose George 23:10 Alice & the Battle of the Bordellos 45:04 The Gunfight at Hide Park 73:15 - Billy the Kid's Brother 88:12 Joaquin Murrieta 144:48 Arizona Ranger Ed Scarborough 157:25 Alfred Packer 212:04 The Devil's Canyon 🤠Watch This Next!!!! ➡️ • Wild West Starter Package 🤠Buy Me A Coffee – https://buymeacoffee.com/wildwest 🤠Check out the website for more true tales from the Old West https://www.wildwestextra.com/ 🤠Email me! https://www.wildwestextra.com/contact/ 🤠Free Newsletter! https://wildwestjosh.substack.com/ 🤠Like this content?
