On April 7, 1905, two cowboy bandits, William Evans, and John Shaw, dressed in their best clothes, entered the Wigwam Saloon in Winslow, Arizona, shortly before midnight.
Upon arriving, they quickly made their way to the bar and ordered a few shots of whiskey.
However, they were not there just to drink and immediately drew their revolvers to hold up a group of seven men who were playing poker at one of the tables.
They stole more than $200 worth of silver coins from the men and disappeared. The next day, Shaw died in a gunfight with the authorities.
Some cowboys dug him up for one last drink and a few photos, then they buried him again with some whiskey.
