Stopped at Shell station in Brookshire TX on I-10 (south of) and found more pee on the men’s room floor than water in toilets.

Not to be outdone, later in the trip, stopped at Shell/McDonald’s on I-10 (south of) in Iowa LA to find even more pee on the men’s room floor than previous stop.

Shoes-burned-worthy! And I am no germophobe. At all.

Do better, Shell. Damn.

I don't know what the physiological reason is that men miss the target and piss all over the floor. I take a wide stance at the urinal. But I'm sure I have a lot of genetic material on the soles of my shoes anyway.

After experiencing Buccees, I only stop there or a Love’s if one is too far away.

Never, ever stop in Crow Agency, MT at night. Bathroom felt like something out of a Balkan horror movie - hanging wires, flashing lights, unknown stains and graffiti, and angry locals.

And yet many people on this very site don't believe it's nasty to wear shoes in their homes.

Burger King off I-10, somewhere west of the river from Baton Rouge.

Dirty, crowded, and busted stall door when I had to shite. Got yelled at by an old man telling me to lock the door when he walked in on me, trying to reach down and hold the door shut while doing my bidness.

I had to pee driving down I-65 around Clanton, AL years ago and the choices were very limited. I guess I wasn't paying attention, I can't remember exactly, lets be honest maybe I was on my phone or something. But I reached to open the bathroom door, and the handle was wrapped in a condom. Probably put there as a joke by a teen ager, but the unexpected feeling of latex on a door handle along with the site of a condom on it hasn't left my mind.

Pro tip i learned traveling to west Texas. If you are in need of a clean bathroom along the interstate, stop at a hotel.

There is always some just as close, or closer, than a gas station when exiting.

Almost always have a bathroom in hotel lobby

Bathroom will almost always be clean and not being used.

USSR 1980s. Large indoor space that smelled bad. Brick floor. 2 bricks stacked on either side of the hole in the floor. Communist Toilet.

Wards in Hattiesburg was probably the worst. Any small gas station along the interstate.

Welcome centers should be completely sanitary. You want me to visit your state? Start with hospitality.

There was a cafe in North Texas, now out of business. It had great food. But, one day I made the mistake of going to the men's room, which was accessed from outside (different health code and style in 1984). The toilet was full of shite ... literally. The water wasn't working so employees (I assume) took shits until the shite reached the top of the bowl. I don't think you could take a dump without dragging through the waste unless you did the squat with feet on the lid. I never went there again.

I think this was a short term issue.

Gas station right past Le Triomphe Country Club on Hwy 90 in Broussard.  Wife said multiple women's bathroom stalls had shite on the seat, explosive diarrhea spray on the walls.  Men's has a river of piss you had to wade trough upon entering...needless to say we left and went to another down the road.

I've witnessed cleaner bathrooms in New Orleans East..

Circle K bathrooms are some of the nastiest on planet Earth.

Stopped at one a few days ago in Glendale, AZ. Graffiti all over the walls. Piss all over the urinal. Piss all over the floor. The sinks didn't work. No soap or paper towels. The toilet stall area had dirty clothes and shite all over the place. No air conditioning.

Was one of the dirtiest I've seen.

Most problems are user error. There's a Bucees 5 minutes down I-10 from Brookshire. And a Pilot and a Love's off I-10 in Iowa.

Custer, MT is not much better, but Crow Agency is terrible. Of course, in regards to angry locals, 96% of them are Native Americans, so they hate outsiders. Our church did some work in Pine Ridge, SD, and the locals were very hateful toward us, but I get it.

Paula Deen's restaurant in Savannah, GA. Nastiest restaurant bathroom I have ever walked into, and I am including fast food places.

I drove a truck coast to coast for a long time. Miami to Seattle and Vancouver BC. I have been in a lot of nasty bathrooms.
