At the turn of the 19th Century the US and Mexican governments were at war over border disputes (Remember the Alamo?). The US Texas Rangers were a law unto themselves when they patrolled the disputed border. If they found a “Mexican” who could not explain his presence North of the border, he, (it was always a “he”) was generally shot dead on the spot. To warn off other Mexicans, the Ranger left an Ace of Spades on top of the dead body, or tucked into a pocket. 

A Chicago-based playing card manufacturer made special packs of 52 Ace-of-Spades cards for the Rangers and it is believed gave them to the Rangers for free.

Our RTM “Ace of Spades” bottle opener works well and fits neatly into your pocket. There is no need to kill anyone, however. Makes a great gift. Oh, and tell them the story!
