The Turf was a bar located on the north side of the 100 block of W. Main during the 1960s and ’70s. The building once housed Frockenbrock’s Funeral Home and later Costner Hardware. The Turf featured a massive ornate wooden Victorian bar and back bar. In the late ’70s, it housed the first location of Zimorino’s Red Pies Over Montana. The building burned in the early morning hours of October 29, 1979, soon after the end of a Halloween party sponsored by the Zimorino Brothers, the Poor Monroe band and Bitterroot Music.
