Deer Widows Weekend is a wild, raucous and highly lucrative event for the Wendover Gaming industry while their husbands and boyfriends are out in the mountains on the first week of Utah’s deer hunt, hundreds of Utah women flock to the Nevada/Utah border town for gambling and troops of male strippers brought in especially for the weekend.

In addition to hoards of women the weekend also attracts a substantial albeit smaller number of men who have less interest in deer and more interest in poaching someone else’ significant other.
Recently the Utah Highway Patrol has stepped up its presence on Interstate 80 during the weekend even running DUI check points and it was because of that increased police presence that special fun busses began to run for the event.
