re: Those that live within 10 miles of a Buc-ee's

I live about 20-25 minutes away from one that is in a town north of mine, but I'm never up that way for any reason. I live in Texas and we've had Buccees for a long time, so luckily the novelty has kind of worn off for my kids and wife. But, omg, I remember being forced to stop st that busy arse Buccees on I-35 anytime we were driving between Dallas and San Antonio. Buccees and the damned Czech Stop gas station with the famous kolaches were sure fire way to piss me off on any of our trips down I-35.

I didn't learn this until recently, but the Buccees founder/owner is an aggie who was in the Corp of cadets there where he was nicknamed Beaver during his college days. I guess that's where the Buccees beaver comes from.
