History of Johnny Nolon’s
It was in the fall of 1891 that a young Pony Express rider from St. Joseph, Missouri, came over to the top of Tenderfoot Hill and looked down on “The World’s Greatest Gold Camp,” Cripple Creek. The gold rush was just beginning, and it seemed every day a new strike was heard of. While everyone was busy reckoning a way to get up in “them thar hills” to stake their claims, Johnny Nolon was figuring it a little different. Noticing that the town lacked a good saloon and gambling house, and not being one for getting too dirty, he decided to open the Johnny Nolon Saloon & Gambling Emporium on the corner of Third and Bennett.

Because they kept their pool tables level, cleaned the spittoons regularly, and stocked only the finest liquors and cigars, the establishment was known as the “Gentlemen’s Popular Resort.” District mining magnates, the likes of Stratton, Penrose, and Tutt, frequented Johnny Nolon’s, drinking and playing games of chance such as roulette, poker, and faro.
