Say something good about Texas!

I live there!

 

Rumor spreadin' 'round
In that Texas town
About that shack outside La Grange
And you know what I'm talkin' about
Just let me know if you wanna go
To that home out on the range
They got a lot of nice girls

Have mercy
A-haw, haw, haw, haw
A-haw, haw, haw, haw

Well, I hear it's fine
If you got the time
And the ten to get yourself in
A-hmm, hmm
And I hear it's tight
Most every night
But now I might be mistaken
Hmm, hmm, hmm

Have mercy

Austin is a fun town, but that's all I got.

 

Texas style BBQ, especially brisket.

Austin is a great city.

That’s about it. Texas is the most overrated state in the US. Not that it’s bad or anything… just consistently overrated. Texas is the Beatles of states.

 

You sir are incorrect regarding the Beatles

 

Texas gives Floridian's a lot of distance from California....

 

My wife was born there.

Maybe they'll take her back?

 

Dallas cowboy cheerleaders

 

Strip clubs

 

Hill country is pretty though.

 

This doesn't even scratch the surface...

For time at UF I played basketball on Saturday mornings with a group of guys. I was heading out to Port Arthur, Texas for a summer job, and one of the other guys was heading to El Paso for his two weeks of national guard duty. He suggested we get together on the weekend. He was shocked to learn that Port Arthur, Texas was halfway between Gainesville and El Paso. Half of the distance was in the one state.

 

Their speed limits are higher.

But their exit system off of highways sucks ass. And every road is under construction all at once (Houston I'm looking at you, Beaumont too, that whole area sucks)

 

Congressional Medal of Honor winner /Actor, Audie Murphy was a Texan along with Farrah Fawcett, Sharon Stone & Earl Campbell.

Texas

Thank you for your service!

 

Congressional Medal of Honor Winner & Hollywood actor, Audie Murphy, Admiral Chester Nimitz, were both Texans. So were Farrah Fawcett, Sharon Stone & Earl Campbell.

Roger Staubach made his fortune there & starred with the Cowboys as did Emmitt! WWII B-17 pilot, Tom Landry was the Cowboys’ first coach.

Texas A&M has the most congenial, accommodating fan base I have ever encountered. More importantly, the school has produced 7 Congressional Medal of Honor winners.

Lastly, my grandfather was fromfrom Kerrville, TX.

 

Great post, except there were never Medal of Honor "winners." It was never a competition. They were awardees...

 

They have a favorable castle doctrine.
