“This bar has been here since 1903. Never closed in all that time. Ticket’s has been here through two world wars and those after them, Prohibition, the Depression, the recession, the booms, the bubbles, and the heartaches.”

“Ticket to Oregon: A Three Generational Saga” is a storyteller’s or storylovers’ dream. From 1900 across the new century, bar owner Owen Ticket captures the new American West with inter-related tales of three generations of three families who built and lived in the fictional town of Cordell, Oregon.
As he pours forth gallons of beer, he offers tales of the joys and tribulations of a gallery of bar visitors: a trigger-happy card shark, The Frenchman, Paws the Wonder Dog, Stonekicker Bob, some rowdy circus performers, local lumbermen, Moses, the phrase-turning Irishman grave digger, and Annie Oakley herself.
Tickets has seen it all—the booms, the bubbles, and the heartaches. So, pull up a stool, park your heel on the brass foot rail, and settle in for some serious—and not-so-serious—storytelling.
