Dillinger Days; Tucson, AZ



This weekend I was coerced into staying in Tucson to attend the Dillinger Days. Okay, not really at all... The downtown hotel, music venue, and club hosted a weekend of festivities celebrating the history of John Dillinger. Dillinger was a bank robber of the 1920's, partaking in many heists and police getaways. A fire at Hotel Congress actually caused many of his gang members to be caught and put into jail. Johnny Depp will play yet another badass role as Dillinger in "Public Enemies," which comes out 1 July 2009.

  1. Nope, I just checked on IMDB and it was mostly filmed in the Midwest. That would have been amazing... imagine drinking at Congress with J. Depp!
