....The Wild West....






“Pawnee Bill,” a Western showman whose real name was Gordon Lillie, went to the Pawnee Indian Nation to teach school. Buffalo Bill Cody asked him to perform in his show with some tribal members. Lillie later started his own show, Pawnee Bill’s Wild West Circus, touring the country from the 1880s until the 1930s. A re-enactment of the show is held every summer in Pawnee (pop. 2,230).
