    Absolutely phenomenal and truly overwhelming to the firearms enthusiast. I spent half a day in just the firearms wing but the whole Buffalo Bill Center of the West is outstanding. I have given money to them annually since my first visit and will strive to forever.... it?s that amazing.

    Not to mention my first born took her very first steps inside the museum . So there?s an even more sentimental place in my heart for it.

    Used to live about 27 miles east of there. Was in that area for nearly 10 years. Spent many a day just in that section of the museum. Well worth the visit.

    There are also other places in Cody worth spending time looking around. The Irma Hotel and Silver Saddle bar are interesting. Irma was William F Cody's (Buffalo Bills) daughter and he named it after her.

    The people who curate the museum and consult with the museum are extremely knowledgeable and have the best stories.

    I was there when I was in high school a long time ago.... I was up that way a few years ago for work and really tried to make it to the museum but couldn't swing it.

    Take the time. If it's what it was back in the day, it will be a very unique experience.

    Went there in 2000. I was an awesome experience. Haven't made it back yet, but maybe later this year.

    You could easily spend an entire day at the BBHC and not see it all. Well worth the time.

    If you love your freedom, thank a veteran. If you love to party, thank the Beastie Boys. They fought for that right.
