Thought For The Day

Back in 1990, the Government seized the Mustang Ranch brothel in Nevada
for tax evasion and, as required by law, tried to run it. They failed and it closed.

Now we are trusting the economy of our country to a pack of nit-wits who
couldn't make money running a whore house and selling booze???

Just something to think about....

The Mustang Ranch was bought off eBay from the IRS and relocated by the owner of the Wild Horse Brothel. It is in the same area about 15 miles east of Reno. My old stomping ground.



The World Famous Mustang Ranch is open after a $6 million renovation.

The Mustang Ranch, in a barrage of glitz and splendor, has re-opened! Shut down by the government in 1999, the once gaudy World Famous Mustang Ranch has undergone a relocation, transformation and revival of epic proportions.
Lance Gilman, owner/operator, has diligently moved, restored, revived and reopened the famous brothel, all in an effort to maintain the integrity and importance of its famous name known worldwide! He has placed the famous pink stucco buildings in a quiet cul-de-sac to sit across from its opulent neighbor, The Wild Horse Resort and Spa.
Once in place, the lovely and talented Madam Susan Austin went to work on a massive remodel inside and out, being careful to preserve the essence and historical qualities that could have been lost forever.

Made famous by Joe Conforte, the Mustang Ranch was Nevada’s first legal brothel and before long, the name became known around the world. While there take time to visit the Mustang Ranch Museum that is filled with memorabilia from the original brothel, and there is a replica of Conforte’s private suite.
