It wasn't the Custer Cafe - it was the Custer Club. It was down below street level, and when I was growing up in MC, it still had slot machines and live poker games. That was in those dear dead days when the Tongue River Clinic was still open. It was quite a wild place then, with waitresses wearing short (above the knee!) skirts and high heels.
Shortly thereafter, a reform-minded county attorney named Lucas was elected, and tourism dropped dramatically, especially during hunting season! big grin"

Only because of the research she has done, I'm sure Amorette knows better than I, but I always understood that the Custer Club was a speakeasy during the prohibition era. I do remember that at one time it was run by Bill Grogan, as their daughter Karen was in grade school with me. The Grogan family left Miles City for Billings in the 1950's, but Bill's widow, Virginia, moved back here and is in our community today. A wonderful lady.
And I think the County Attorney Dona is referring to was named Carr, and not Lucas.
