Nashville, Tenn.
Show Low
This unique city was named after a legendary poker game played between two of its pioneers. The gentlemen decided that there was not enough room for both of them on the 100,000-acre ranch, and so they agreed to settle their feud with a card game. As the story is told, the card game became quite lengthy, and eventually one of them said, “If you can show low, you win.”
The other one turned up the deuce of clubs and replied, “show low it is.” The main street in Show Low is named “Deuce of Clubs” as a head-nod to the tale.
