Tom Mix Last Stop Before Death Site

Though Tom Mix may have been in Tucson earlier that evening, his last drink, last phone call, and last roulette spin were at The Oracle Junction Inn, a few miles to the south. The historic restaurant and bar is still there. As part of a historic preservation effort in 2008-09, the very roulette table that was once in operation there has been placed on display.
