Dirty Moe's life began in a small town in the Southeast sometime before the great Civil War. Moe, born Morris "Moe" Johnston, was the seventh child of a sharecropper's family.Moe was a young man as he made tracks West to start his new life after butting heads with his parents. As he traveled from town to town getting into scuffles along the way, he had to learn quick how to cover his back. Although he never talked about it much, rumor had it that he even spent a little time in the Yuma Territorial Prison. |

After a time, he opened up a saloon to keep his rambunctious wife, Lizzie, busy during the day. To this day, you can find the unforgettable name and legend of Dirty Moe lingering within the Indian Springs Casino.You can read more exciting stories about the life and times of Dirty Moe in the archives of the Springs Gazette or stop by the casino and pick up a copy of the current issue in the Springs Café. |

A rarely seen spectacle in the sky marked an unprecedented occasion in the quiet desert of Indian Springs - a moment when two worlds joined forces.As legends live on, so does this tall tale about Dirty Moe - who just happened to be in the right place at the right time and became Earth's unofficial ambassador when A. Leon Jr. landed just outside of Area 51 in the Nevada desert. Dirty Moe, who was driving a herd of cattle North from the Springs, was startled by the friendly little creatures. When asked to join them for an intergalactic summit (in case you're wondering why, they had never met a real cowboy and were fascinated by Moe), Moe gladly accepted. You see, Moe never turned down an offer to try something new.We shall never know what came from that momentous meeting, since someone forgot to put film in the camera. All we are left with is our own artistic rendering of this historic occasion. |
