Wicked Branson

Bransonâ€™s wholesome brand of entertainment made it the nationâ€™s destination for family fun, but the vacation wonderland canâ€™t claim a spotless past. Murder and mischief dogged the townâ€™s efforts at respectability from the very beginning. The founderâ€™s own brother, Galba Branson, was a prominent member of the notorious vigilante gang the Bald Knobbers. He died in a picnic shootout that originated in a church prank. Bransonâ€™s transformation into a showbiz mecca brought quarrel and scandal in its wake, from provoked orangutans to wire-tapped dressing rooms. Three comedians and authorsâ€”Ed and Karen Underwood and John Pinneyâ€”offer this backstage pass to the seamier side of Bransonâ€™s history.
