On the Vegas to Reno drive the Jack Dempsey Room at the Mizpah Hotel is worth a stop. Lots of Dempsey pictures. Dempsey started his career fighting bare-knuckled smokers in Tonopah and Goldfield. He was a bar bouncer in Goldfield. Wyatt Earp lived in Tonopah for awhile. Brother Virgil lived in Goldfield for awhile too.
