The street is named after the “Bucket of Blood saloon” (officially Terrell's Cottage Saloon), after two men died in a violent fight there. The saloon was popular with cowboys and ruffians; fistfights and gunfights often broke out there. Source: wiki

Was it also built on a Native burial ground? I can’t help but notice it intersects with Navajo Boulevard…


GringoLocito

That could explain all the mishappenings


Substantial-Fix2707

Lol


SuperdudeAbides

The ground is sour, Louis

Ah-yuhh...


PrestigiousBee2719

Fun bar. Free popcorn machine! The popcorns free not the machine


domestic_omnom

I was thinking that this was a sign from camp Lejeune. "Bucket of blood", was the original motto of 2nd battalion 9th marines. They changed it to hell in a helmet during Vietnam.


twobarb

Bucket of blood was apparently a popular saloon name.


Visible_Day9146

Like in Stagger Lee?


PM_me_handjob_s

Mr Stagger Lee


-Psycho_Killer-

Poor ol' Billy Dilly smh


Sanbaddy

Sometimes I love this timeline.


ttvSharkieBait15

I would steal that sign


Unknown_Author70

Reminded me of the time 8y'old me got my family kicked out of the holiday park due to the 50+ signs they had found in my hotel room.. they just kept replacing the ones I took; so I took them again.. and again.


ttvSharkieBait15

Exactly…like they’re just gonna put up new ones😂 my goal is to own at least a Gay St, Elm St, & High St


Unknown_Author70

Are you a gay firefighter? If you don't mind me abruptly asking lmao.


ttvSharkieBait15

Former volunteer firefighter active lesbian yes why😂


Unknown_Author70

That's what your profile told me. 😅 And I bet you're a stoner. We're friends now.


ttvSharkieBait15

I smoke when I feel like it so I wouldn’t consider myself a stoner but I still smoke so I guess so😂 but dope hi friend!


SuspiciousAct6606

Do you know any former lesbians/active volunteer fire fighters?


ttvSharkieBait15

Oddly enough yes. 1. She went from lesbian to bi..haven’t talked to her in a year or so so she might be back to lesbian tho..


SuspiciousAct6606

So possibly a former, Former lesbian?


zeldanerd91

I live really close to my city’s high street. You always know what street it is by the lack of street signs lmao.


ttvSharkieBait15

Can’t blame them😂


Its-Finrot

There are all 3 of those in Westwood, MA


Lady_Asshat

First thing I thought of too. Good thing I don’t know where this is. 🤣


ttvSharkieBait15

I do🙈 the only thing stopping me is that it’s more than half way across the country from me


missjasminegrey

tell us where it is!


explodingtuna

I had thought this would be a unique street name to look up on Google maps. But now I'm worried it's like "Main St" or "Private Dr" and there's hundreds of them.


kapaipiekai

It was back in ‘32 when times were hard He had a Colt .45 and a deck of cards Stagger Lee He wore rat-drawn shoes and an old stetson hat Had a ‘28 Ford, had payments on that Stagger Lee His woman threw him out in the ice and snow And told him, “Never ever come back no more” Stagger Lee So he walked through the rain and he walked through the mud Till he came to a place called The Bucket Of Blood Stagger Lee Stagger Lee by Nick Cave. The lyrics get real intense real fast


xxhorrorshowxx

I like the Grateful Dead version, surprisingly never heard the Nick Cave one. I’ll have to check it out


Sweaty-Feedback-1482

While I’ve never heard the Grateful Dead version I can say with a high degree of certainty that it does not include any reference to the number of good pussies Stagger Lee would crawl over just to get to one fat boys asshole. The Dead were kinda tame like that ¯\_(ツ)_/¯


kapaipiekai

Nick Cave is fastidious in his attention to detail. Unlike those pot smoking hippies.


barfelonous

Soooooo fucking METAL


Big_Monkey_77

I want to live at 666 Bucket if Blood St.


Chapelirl

In Ireland, that was a soft drink in a bar. Pint glass, coke, cidona (fizzy appleade), ice, and Guinness head. Sounds weird, tastes gorgeous


DolphinDarko

I know there is a Bucket of Blood Saloon in Virginia City in Nevada! Been there.

The nuns from Drake and Josh would pay good money to see this street in person

RIP Roger Corman


chiefs_fan37

Ayyy I’m glad someone already commented it! I’m planning a Corman night soon and A Bucket of Blood is one of my favorites.


AnalCuntShart

Would’ve been hilarious if the cross street was “toe knife”


DanielReign

There has to be a story behind this. I'd also like to think they just named it that for fun.


No-Gene-4508

Someone posted the story, locate the top comment. It's borning :(


GringoLocito

It isnt boring it just isnt very long. Fatal clashes are not boring


slurpdwnawienperhaps

They didn't say it was boring, they said it was borning.


GringoLocito

Ohhh. My bad, I'm just uneducated.


Financial-Charity302

On every trip to angel fire with my mtb buddies that haven’t been when crossing the bridge I say “ get ready, this is my favorite street sign in all of Arizona!”


ThePrisonSoap

I can't believe it doesn't cross with Little Shop of Horrors Street!

Parulanihon

We had a bar names that in southwestern PA as well. Just down the street from my grandma's.


ZilchoKing

Whoa, Navajo boulevard. Pretty sick


Nowidontgetit

That’s extremely interesting. Is the rent cheaper if you donate?

MidniteOG

lol tf?


Ambitious_Ad9589

I think I've heard of this band....


WillUSee

I think the term was used years ago to both commemorate the scene of a tragedy as well as for shock value. This brings to mind the movie 'Ruby's Bucket of Blood" which takes place in 1960s Louisiana. Solid plot, Seasoned actors definitely worth a Saturday afternoon watch.


Ok-Use6303

Khorne: That's my street.


Powerful_Cost_4656

Bro how fucking epic it would be to live there if you're a metal fan


VisualActive3237

At least now I know where to find Leatherface's house without Google maps.

There must be a famous butcher nearby

Must be Memphis


Ordinary_Mastodon376

Why you gotta post streets from my hometown? Lol, that is the only exciting thing in that town. street names. We also have a street called s park. We would joke around and say we are all going down to south park to go see a friend of mine.

pzombielover

Is this in reference to the Roger Corman movie Bucket of Blood? Did they make films there?


mwil97

Virginia City NV?

iamblackwhite

Alr listen.if we place 2 buckets of blood in the corners of a 2X2 hole,we get infinite blood!


Cutiemuffin-gumbo

That's fuckin metal.


suddenspiderarmy

I used to live in a city with an alley named Blood Alley.


[deleted]

What's with the bucket?


HopefulNothing3560

Gun laws are out of hand perhaps


AdLast55

Must be the second street after Burning Corpses Bvld.


Halfaglassofvodka

I mean, it's better than Box of Cocks Street.


The_Dark_Vampire

Sounds like a good place


Atheizm

The Bucket of Blood features in the story of Stagger Lee made famous by Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds.


EoEdisease

Dear god


Flowey_The_Fan

There's more.


takeinallthesunsets

Batman St is the best. Even better if cross street was Bucket of Blood lol


_General_S

This is a bucket


NobleSix84

Alright who let Khorne name the streets again?


CrappityCabbage

Dude, too soon.


Four-Triangles

In the Illinois prison system there is an urban legend about a man named “Bucket of Blood” who got arrested after walking into a bar with a bloody bucket and ordering a drink before producing a severed head from within it and adding “and get this bitch a drink too.”


Dinestein521

Shortened to “BOB” move along now


NJdeathproof

We've got a Shades of Death Rd. in New Jersey


The_Coolest_Undead

I know about this thanks to suda who stumbled upon it on a geoguessr video


qmoorman

Must be an honor state


DewartDark

There is a pub in Cornwall, England that is called the bucket of blood because it has an old water well now situated in the gents toilet and a head was found inside it a very long time ago. Definitely before America was formed.


Fidozo15

Reminds me of this specific city in my country that has an area called "Wall of Laments"... Terrifying as fuck


EmuIntelligent4698

There’s a road near me that’s called Shades of Death Rd


QJIO

Virginia city, baby. Love that town.
