Book excerpt reading, "To demonstrate how intrinsically alien Cincinnati once was, let's drop in at the Palace Hotel on the night of Friday, December 12, 1890. On the menu is elephant steak. The Palace Hotel (today's Cincinnatian Hotel) has elephant steak on the menu because an elephant was executed by firing squad that morning at the Cincinnati Zoo. Hundreds of people watched. That pretty much summarizes Cincinnati in 1890."
For all of the joking about @dunderbeckgame.com being nominated for "Best in Simulation" at #TMG2025, it turns out the game may have been more simulation than I had thought (Taken from Greg Hand's book, "Cincinnati Curiosities")
