PHENIX CITY ALABAMA / SIN CITY TOUR
SUMMARY
Phenix City Alabama holds a controversial history. “Sin City” and “Sodom.” were the names tagged to the city. Phenix City was entrapped in the grasp of the infamous “Dixie Mafia.”
Ruthless gangsters, pimps, thieves, and cheaters ran amok along the western shore of the Chattahoochee River. These decadent activities finally met its course through the murder of one stalwart citizen, who looked to take down the corrupt operation. The state declared martial rule. The soldiers dismantled the regime.
We’ll ride along the roads where playing cards flipped and roulette wheels spun. See the location where the notorious murder occurred and the tide turned against the criminals. We’ll traverse by the homes of some of the main characters in this good-over-evil story.
The major changes Phenix City Alabama has accomplished to eradicate remnants of an era that still haunts and disturbs a generation of local citizens is dazzing.
All tour times are Eastern.
