For sure Yuma, Arizona?
[edit]The article states that the characters are going to Yuma, Arizona. How do we know it's not Yuma, Colorado or some other placed named Yuma? I haven't seen the film since I was a kid so I do not recall very much of the film. Do they mention it in the dialog? Jason Quinn (talk) 06:28, 23 April 2017 (UTC)
- @Jason Quinn: I don't remember, I also saw it when I was a kid, I just came across The Gambler (film series) and figured the film is worth spinning off into an article of its own. I presumed they're going to Yuma, Arizona, since for the others, Brady and Billy would've probably been headed in opposite directions in El Paso.
- I do suppose that it might've actually been the "Yuma, California" mentioned here. There's no Yuma, CA in reality, although Yuma, AZ is right on the CA border and it wouldn't be the first time this confusion ensued. Daß Wölf 02:06, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
- Come to think of it, the First Transcontinental Railroad was built over Sierra Nevada, so if they took that route, Yuma, Colorado wouldn't be far off. I'm going to remove the state from the article. Daß Wölf 02:11, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
- It's also possible the setting is just a fictional placed called Yuma, which is sometimes done for budget reasons when you cannot simulate the real place. Jason Quinn (talk) 06:43, 26 April 2017 (UTC)
