City Weekly, Utah's Independent Newspaper, names Hired Guns as "Best of Utah"

"Lannie 'The Marshal' Scopes, left, and Craig 'Creek' Johnson certainly look the part of the old-time cowboy: weathered visages and abundant facial hair. But that's just the outward manifestation of the love for the Old West that the longtime 'In Cahoots' partners have brought to their public speaking and meet-and-greet venture. Whether it's cowboy poetry, humor, music or rustlin' up a big 'Howdy,' Scopes and Johnson have made it their business to keep a certain authentic Western spirit and code alive. If the event calls for cowboys, it calls for these hired guns."
