Yes you did miss something. Just outside the city you will find gas wells. However these aren’t normal gas wells. These are helium wells and the only ones in the continent. The only other place is in Russia. I forgot something, also outside the city at night, there is little light pollution, which means Star gazing is phenomenal. I went up there a meteor shower. One every 20 seconds.
A hidden treasure and close to Palo Duro Canyon State Park. This is not the area to go to seek art, high culture or folks who aren't married to first cousins. 🤨 This place is for nature lovers. Beautiful canyon breaks only miles away in almost any direction. Folks are friendly. Restaurants are generic frozen stuff with gawd awful and usually not too clean decor. Bring a sack lunch, some hiking boots and a canteen.
Make sure you tell everyone to bring enough water when you go to the canyon during the summer cause the Randall County fire department is sick of coming for your ass over something so preventable.
You need to go downtown about 1030am, and find that little BBQ place, get your BBQ, eat it, then take a tour of the Santa Fe building. I have a special place in my heart of Amarillo because of that Santa Fe Building tour. That was many years ago, they may not even be using the building anymore. There the city police and many city offices were there when I went through there. That is one really neat art deco building. The city and county people working in there were the best most polite and cordial people on the planet. Loved every second of it. The food in Amarillo is great. Good BBQ. Calico County Cafe was great also. That was in the 90s, so who knows what is what now. When they dug the foundation for that, they discovered a wooly mammoth remains in very great condition. Still had hair and skin.
I been here most of my life if you thinking about amarillo meth is really only the biggest problem meth makes theft high other then that we would love to have you
Come to Amarillo TX we have great Authentic Mexican food, Great prices at our local grocery stores, cheap gas, rent, and its an all around beautiful town.
I've seen quite a few fellas tackle that 72 oz steak. I would have thought that 'heavier' guys would be a natural to win this, but the only ones I have seen able to successfully complete the challenge were thin fellas. I speculate it is because they can 'expand' better in their mid section.
Why does a cowboy in Amarillo keep a can of chewing tobacco in his back pocket? Answer: So he can stand on it and see the next county. If you've been there, you'd understand.
My favorite thing is that their is a lot of movie theaters mutliple Walmart’s and a new place called cinergy which is an amazing place to watch movies play bowling and play mini games
@@raymesquite amarillo has all the crime and poverty with absolutely no redeeming qualities other places have. This is a small ass town. If you live in the loop and you have to go to exit 78 area every fucking day you are going to easily put 40 miles on your car. Every other city I've lived in isn't 20 miles long for a fucking population of not even 200k people. I'm done living here. There are no jobs. The cost of living might as well be as expensive as new York because you won't even remotely make enough money to pay for shit. I've never in my life seen tin foil on the fucking windows in the summer until I moved here. There is no economic growth. I have to carry a gun everywhere I go because crime is so bad. The roads are on levels with third world countries. You have to suck somebody's dick just to get a lousy low wage job. Fuck this place.
You do not want to move to Amarillo Texas. Unless you want to be a prostitute because they will pull you into it and you will not have any help from any agency, lawyer, cop. No one. They have the most corrupt system here that you will ever see in your life. They are killing women here and nothing is being done. Don't move here. Take my word for it I'm a veteran and they don't have any respect for me either because I'm a woman.
DO NOT MOVE THERE THERE'S NOTHING TO DO...... There's lots of WORK 12-14 HOURS A DAY SEVEN DAYS A WEEK... AND IT'S ALL....... AG RI CUL TURE FARMING RANCHING FEEDIN COWS CHASIN COWS MAKIN STEAKS OUT OF COWS. IT'S FLAT IT'S WINDY IT'S HOT Do this,turn your oven on high Put a fan on the door SIT IN FRONT of the OVEN
Why did you give such short shrift to the Cadillac Ranch? Even if you include the welcomed graffiti, it's still a form of art, as all US cars in the postwar era are today. The Cadillac "Ranch" (sic) just west of Amarillo was designed and created by Texas millionaire Stanley Marsh III and assembled to honor the era of Cadillacs in which the cars' tail lights were integrated into the tail fins. Ten cars represent the distinct variations from 1948 to 1964.
Pretty sure I’m correct, especially if this video was published in May 2021. No mention of our minor league baseball team or brand new stadium? No mention of any other restaurants besides the Big Texan?
I grew up there. Hated living there. After I moved, I started missing it. I underestimated it. By the way, I used to work at Wonderland Park. Brings back memories.
@@crwinters3737 It took me a long time before I figured out why the baseball team was named the Sod Poodles. Once I realized it was a synonym for "Prairie Dogs", I thought they could've done better at picking a name.
I find that this "top ten" RU-vid video, like the many others populating the page, are put together like a college turn in: at the last minute and with little to no experience with the subject. This is merely a top ten trivia.
Usually I get asshole comments like this on the videos where I explain why a place sucks. Seriously, do you not have anything better to do? Feel free to never visit my channel again, I'm sure you won't anyway.
After living and driving in the Hollywood Hills and Switzerland Hills for so many years...I like flat ...with big places that are very easy to drive and park my big fancy car! haha
Hell actually has better night time music and far cleaner restaurants. Even in hell no one would bring lame talent like Herp Albert to punish folks with. 🤔 Even in hell, no one sows Kentucky Bluegrass for a desert yard that gets 17 inches of rain annually.
