Doc Holiday still drinks' booze at the River City Saloon, located in Sacramento. The outlaw hangout is a painstakingly exact replica of the saloon that stood there in the 1900's, hence the famous slogan "almost historic." You can dine, drink and get your picture taken with Doc Holiday while he drinks at the bar at this authentic Wild West stop.
