79 cent breakfast
by heitzenrater about first gold!
This dinner is located on the actual site of the first gold discovery in Deadwood Gulch back in the late 1800. Breakfast is a steal, although when we went we lost in the slots and i guess the meal actually costed us about 300. I guess thats why the meal is so cheap. The website tells you everything you need to know about the place.

The town of Deadwood
by bpwillet
The Deadwood of today is a bit different than that of its heyday in the late 1800's. It is a reconstruction of what the city would have looked like when Wild Bill and Calamity Jane would have walked its streets and stayed in its hotels. The entire city is on the National Historic Register and it takes you back in time as you walk down Main street. From humble beginnings as a Black Hills mining outpost in 1876, the discovery of gold soon brought prospective gold diggers as well as commerce to the town. Named after the Deadwood Gulch nearby lawless and rough characters soon moved in to the area once the Black Hills gold rush was on. Soon the railroad came bringing workers, commerce and establishing Deadwood as a business center, no matter what business it was conducting.
