My wife and I went to Virginia City about 6 months ago. I had not been in 35 years since my grandfather took me there when I was 5. We walked into the Bucket of Blood and I remembered it. I told the Bartender that the last time that I had been there was 35 years ago when I was five and about my grandfather (now deceased). Well she gave me and ...

Bucket of Blood
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/21/07
Yeeeehaw! There's silver in them hills!. This saloon is fantastic and true to date. The original saloon from back in the 1860's was rebuilt after a massive fire in the 1880's, it got it's name from a swab (Janitor) after cleaning up from a fight the previous night saying "It must have been a bucket of blood, I cleaned ...

2004 DALG run to Tahoe
By xxxx, 10/24/06
We had the opportunity to drop into this historic saloon and had a great time. We are from Arizona so the appreciation of the old west runs deep. Bucket of Blood provided us with a sense "old timeness" that should always be there when in a saloon in the west. If you take away the cars and electricity...riding into Virginia City on our bikes gave us the feelin' of "ridin' into the old west"

View Is Amazing
By upsman81242, 06/18/06
This bar is not to be missed when in Virginia City, Nevada. The view out the large picture window is amazing and the cocktails aren't bad either!!!!!!
But since the owners have taken all the old machines out and put in the ones from the late 80's and early 90's (1900's not the 1800's) it has lost some of its charm. I still love this place and is the first place I visit everytime I get to Virginia City. The view is amazing!!! I highly recommend that anyone visit Virginia City and stop into the Bucket of Blood saloon.

Don't miss this!
By A Yahoo! Contributor, 11/19/05
This is one historic place you don't want to miss! The historic pictures and art are worth a trip in just to see! The atmosphere is Old West, the music is fantastic, and you cannot help leaving there happy! The people are wonderful, and if you enjoy being happy, and want to see some great history, don't miss this wonderful place!
