First of all, Spirit Lake has a population of only around 1300. Second of all, it was a Sunday, so when we arrived it looked like the town was deserted. Right as we walked in to the bar, Karla and I knew it was going to be an experience because of the customers. The bar itself was nice. The walls were all wood, there were plenty of dead animal heads hanging off the walls and it was filled with pictures of all the ‘regulars.’ However, there were so many characters, I thought my eyes were going to fall out from trying to take everyone in!/Amateur Malcontent. More here (scroll down).

Question: Which Inland Northwest town or spot in the road has the most characters per capita?
