Wyatt Earp as a school teacher


In the scene when he takes control of Dodge city first and then later after Ed Masterson has been murdered and Wyatt fires the shotgun and says it "it all ends now"...

Could you imagine him coming into a classroom full of unruly, obnoxious, and disrespectful kids and laying down the law? I always think of that when I watch that scene.

I think it would be funny.

Interesting idea, but the truth is a bit more outlandish.

Wyatt Earp listed his occupation in Tombstone Village in the 1880 US Census as a "farmer." Ike Clanton listed his occupation as "Sandwich maker." Source: "The Mystery of Russian Bill: Cowboy Desperado, Russian Spy," Amazon ebooks.
