"We invite you to step back in time with us, as much as 100 years age, into the Sporting Eagle Saloon, a turn-of-the-century honky tonk where cowboys gambled, kicked up their heels and drank good old-fashioned frontier rot-gut. Join us as we saunter along the streets beneath Havre and see an opium den (one of three known to have existed in the early days), a Chinese laundry, an ethnic restaurant, and of course, a bordello."
