Which one opened first? The one by Choctaw or the one by Industriplex?

I know Mr Bill and a manager Mark that worked for Mr Bill for years.
He started downtown and then moved to Choctaw. Then opened staring lane & Essen and then closed that location to open the one in Industriplex.

You sure about that. I know the Choctaw location was Bill Simons Exxon in the early 70's. Hell he sponsored my softball team sometime about that time.

I played for Wade Lemoines Esso and Rabenhorst Funeral Home.

We played against Sam Benton Shell and Dick Howell Realty.

Hell I remember playing against Dick Howell Realty.

But that might have been the time I was playing for UCT 1099
