Keep it fun and don't use image searches.
Traditional who what where photo.
Who was the resident, what happened at this place, and where is it located.
Hint: it is in Florida.

cheating.... takes the fun out of it...
It is the Hideout to the Ma Barker gang. They were on the run for kidnapping a bank manager and collecting a ransom. One of her sons decided to go to Chicago instead of sticking with the group. He then used a bill that was being traced from the ransom money and the Feds were brought in to look for him. A 3/1 hunch led to catching Doc Barker as he received mail from Ma Barker under an assumed name. They then were able to track her and his two brothers down with the help of testimony from Doc in exchange for a lighter sentence. The home is located in Ocklawaha on Lake Weir. When the police arrived a 6+ hour gunfight was initiated. The end result was all 3 dwellers on the inside being killed. The 3 were found in the upper left room looking at the picture. The house is currently being sold for 1 million dollars and contains almost all of the original furniture from that day minus some HVAC and kitchen upgrades. The walls were painted but the bullet holes can still be seen. There are even some bullets still lodged in the furniture. The house is also reportedly haunted. A medium claims to have convinced the 2 boys to leave, but Ma refused to leave. The myth is that furniture will get moved around and voices can be heard. Interesting piece of Florida history none the less :D
Ohh good thread idea! Do another one!

We all know that Florida is a great place. Florida is also the home to a few firsts. One of those is the subject of this question...
Q: In the 1900's a game became immensely popular in our great state in a certain city. The game was played by many notable people throughout the years and paved the way to a modern game that is still played today.
Looking for the Name of the game, Where it was played the most, and What game it evolved into.
