There is indeed a town called Happy in Texas, and they know how to sell themselves. So, as they say, turn that frown upside down and get smiling. There is nothing more important to the residents of Happy than being happy and making visitors feel welcome. Is it really possible that a whole town would be without a frown? Probably not, but we’d like to imagine that it can be.
Their happiness game is strong! From cheerful street parades to the most vibrant local festivals, the folks in Happy sure know how to spread the joy. In this town, every day feels like a fun-filled celebration. You might even spot their legendary “Happiness Patrol” on their colorful bicycles, ensuring abundant smiles and laughter echo through the streets.
El Arroyo Style
When we think of Austin, Texas, we usually think of El Arroyo. The Mexican restaurant was first established in 1975 and is known for its funny signs. These signs are indeed something you can only find in Texas. Now, when a Texan goes on a 4-hour car ride, they know it is their chance to put on their favorite music and sing like there's no tomorrow. But hold on tight, 'cause there's more to it than just belting out tunes!
In true Texan fashion, you might even witness some impromptu carpool karaoke sessions with the whole gang! From classic country hits to the latest pop jams, we Texans sure know how to turn a road trip into a concert on wheels! So next time you're cruising through Austin, keep your eyes peeled for some music-filled, boot-stompin' fun - Texas style.
Big Nuts
Here we go with another case of everything being super-sized down in Texas. This guy proudly stands next to the biggest pecan in the world. Where on Earth would they think that having the largest pecan would be an accomplishment worthy of display? Why, Texas, of course. Okay, you do have to admit, it’s pretty impressive.
This guy was actually kind of hoping that there was something edible at this little stop in Seguin. But as it turns out, the only thing this tourist trap had to offer was this enormously sized pie ingredient. Hey, if the pecan isn’t already in a sweet, delicious slice of pie that we can have, we don’t care about it.
Lone Star Outhouse
Some things that you can imagine being “bigger” in Texas are amazing – steaks, margaritas, and parties. But then there are some things that you probably don’t want to think about too much – as is the case for this outhouse. Nice job, Jack. Now, you should probably get out of there before the guy who will use that shows up.
And trust me, you don't want to mess with a Texan who's been holding it in for too long! Texans may be friendly and welcoming, but let's say they can be quite protective of their bathroom time too.
Trespassing
If there's anything that this sign proves is that you really don't want to trespass while in Texas. Unless, of course, you want to meet your maker. We know that he’s got peppers and potatoes for sale, but other than that, we’re as lost as the next guy. You want to do what with those potatoes, sir? It seems as though Google doesn’t work around here.
But hey, who needs Google when you've got a Texan farmer with a stand full of mystery veggies, right? So, if you're brave enough to enter this uncharted territory, be prepared for an adventure of a lifetime! But remember, no trespassing allowed, or you might just end up meeting your maker - the farmer, that is!
