The Trial of Jack McCall is based on the impromptu trial which actually took place the very next day in the mining camp of Deadwood after “Crooked Nose” Jack McCall murdered James Butler “Wild Bill” Hickok. Wild Bill was playing poker in Nuttal and Mann’s Saloon No. 10 on August 2, 1876, and was shot in the back of the head while holding Aces and Eights, forever known as the “Dead Man’s Hand.”

The Trial of Jack McCall can be seen at 8:00PM following the 7:35PM capture of Jack McCall on Historic Main Street. The Trial operates Monday through Saturday during Peak Season. Located at the Eagle Bar, 610 Main Street.

Online ticket purchases must be made a minimum of 24 hours in advance. Tickets are also available at the door before the show or on Historic Main Street from the Information Chuckwagon. Visit DeadwoodAlive.com for more details.
