History of Tonopah and the Clown Motel

Listen to Pat give the history of Tonopah as a town. The story of how it started is fascinating, as is the story of how the cemetery next to motel started.  So many people were buried there in such a short time, it was only open for a few years. The history of the motel itself is also odd and a bit mysterious.
