Bonnie Parker

The movie version is much better.

Bonnie Parker is her name.

Yep, yep, yep.

Yeah, because it's Warren

It was a sight of criminals that America had not really seen before.

It made the Barrow Gang unique, but two members stood out from the rest, the young couple of Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow.

This picture of Bonnie in particular, gun in hand, cigar in mouth, became iconic and it was plastered on the front page of almost every newspaper in the country.

So what made Bonnie and Clyde so captivating? Some argue that it was a matter of the right place and the right time.

Meanwhile, Bonnie Elizabeth Parker was born on October the 1st, 1910, in Rowena, Texas, the second of three children to Charles and Emma Parker.

In 1914, Charles Parker passed away, and Bonnie's mother moved the family to Dallas to live with their grandparents in a poor neighborhood known as Cement City.

Like Clyde Barrow, Bonnie Parker showed no inclinations for crime when she was young.

She was, in fact, an honor student who enjoyed writing poetry and performing in talent shows, with dreams of one day becoming a famous movie star.

Uh, Friday, two on Saturday, and then one on Sunday.

And that is a musical that follows the lives of, uh, Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow and their, uh, [laughs] shenanigans.

Yeah.

[laughs]

And they did it with a style and efficiency that captivated the American imagination.

Take the case of Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow.

The real story, not the movie version.

Bonnie and Clyde were bank robbers, and they were incredibly good at it.

It sounds like Primm's economy has been in a sharp decline these past few years as two of its three casinos, including Whiskey Pete's, have recently closed their doors.

One of the biggest attractions at Whiskey Pete's used to be the death car where notorious outlaws Bonnie Parker and Clyde Barrow were fatally shot in 1934, as the car was kept on display in the lobby for years before it was moved to another location.

However, Whiskey Pete's was also notorious for being the site of no less than two child murders, as seven-year-old Alexander Harris was abducted from the video arcade in 1987 while his family was in the casino, and his strangled body would be discovered underneath a trailer one month later.

And in 1997, seven-year-old Charisse Iverson was sexually assaulted and murdered inside a restroom after she was allowed to wander the casino without adult supervision at 4:00 AM because her father was busy gambling and drinking.

[laughs] Born on this day, now dead.

Bonnie Parker of Clyde fame.

Yeah.

Yo.
