you people have clearly never been down here. while there are plenty of rednecks, youll find about the same concentration of them outside of your cities in the north. they dont wear cowboy hats, but theyre the same brand of dumbass. as for the rest of it all, you people should visit austin some time. easily one of the most badass cities in the us.

edit: hooray for quality musicianship

i agree. austin is the music capitol of the world. texas turns out the best music, especially country music. all that crap in nashville is turning to pop, it's all crap.

give me willie nelson, waylon jennings, johnny cahs, and george jones. they know country, and texas country is made in the same fashion.

few people cook chili. the "chili teams" are formed only so large groups of friends can camp on the grounds teh night before, get drunk and crazy, and watch live texas country music the night before. it also is cheaper.

hey travis, i say we load up and go to the next chili fest....and make chili using the deadly mustard gas.

Yeah, but that's still only called "mild"

I have to admit that there are an aweful lot of cowboy hats in that picture. I don't think I've ever owned a cowboy hat... and the only time I had a pair of cowboy boots was when I was about 8 years old.

Most big cities in Texas will use any reason to have a festival/party... food, music, birthdays...etc.

I wish they would bring the Austin Aquafest back. They used to have drag boat racing on the river running through the middle of town. And road races on the streets (we could never pull this off though).
