Buffalo Bill Statue - Oakley, Kansas

In the area around Oakley, Kansas, you will see signs advertising that town as the birthplace of the "Legend of Buffalo Bill." That does not mean the Buffalo Bill Cody was born here. It was here that he earned the title of "Buffalo Bill" by winning a bison shooting contest with another famed hunter (at that time), Bill Comstock. The bison shooting contests drew numerous curious on-lookers, most arriving by a special Union Pacific train to witness what we now know to have been a senseless slaughter of magnificent animals upon which the plains Indian tribes were dependent for their subsistence. Cody shot 69 bison; Bill Comstock 46. For many decades, Buffalo Bill Cody was glamorized and lifted up as a hero. My view of his stature and his place in American history has deteriorated steadily over the years.

In 2008, this monument was selected as one of the 8 Wonders of Kansas Art.

Located on the west side of Oakley on US Highway 83, north of its junction with US 40. The actual contest is said to have taken place about ten miles west of this site.

82/365 : The Gods Hate Kansas

...but I love it!

Quite an odd collection of Kansas related stuff I have.

It started with a book by William Least Heat-Moon called Blue Highways. I enjoyed it so much I bought his less accessible book, Prairyerth, back in the 90's. In September 2002 I flew to Wichita and took a road trip for a week - I wanted to get away from it all! Having read Prairyerth I headed north-east first, to Chase County. Then west to Hays. [...then south to Richardson, Texas before heading back to Wichita diverting through lots of backroads and small towns] I picked up the fridge magnet and some t-shirts along the way :D

Since 2002 I managed to get hold of the National Geographic featuring Hays from a farmer in Montana selling his collection on ebay, the postcard and sci-fi book were also from ebay.
