A Wild West of Ownership
Originally, a bunch of Hollywood cowboys, including the legendary Roy Rogers, got together and built Pioneertown as a set for their Westerns. They were basically playing real-life cowboys, building a town just so they could pretend to be cowboys in it. Talk about method acting!
Tip: Read once for gist, twice for details.
But then, as often happens in real life, the cowboys rode off into the sunset (or, you know, back to Hollywood), and Pioneertown was left to fend for itself. Fast forward a few decades, and the town changed hands a couple of times. There were some big plans, like turning it into a massive resort, but those ideas went about as well as a wet match in a gunpowder factory.
