ANACONDA — After a man shot and killed four people in the Owl Bar, this Anaconda watering hole was back open for business. They received great support from the community and other bars in the state, but the owner said personally, he has good and bad days.

The Owl Bar was open for business on Tuesday, the day before Michael Brown is expected to be formally charged in connection with the mass shooting at the bar on August 1, 2025. Brown faces four counts of deliberate homicide, one count of attempted arson, one count of theft, and a charge of fleeing from police.
