They still have the "Hang Tight" message posted, so I doubt this is the final angle/clarity. Did we ever figure out how long they have had this streaming?

was wondering the same thing. We're at 72 pages, so time to close up shop?
 
Seeing that blurry camera reminds me of The Twilight Zone episode: Time Enough At Last.

Amarillo. Home of the 72 oz. Steak Challenge and Div. II West Texas A&M U. Geez, string up a few high def cameras for your main attraction, it's not that difficult. I doubt they know anything about us yarders checking in as they seem to be very low tech. They do reply to facebook comments from time to time so we could shake up things there.
If this is where the thread dies, let's at least close with a minor fact check and a few pictures.

West Texas A&M is actually in nearby Canyon, TX, home also of Palo Duro Canyon, a far smaller but still majestic look-alike of the Grand Canyon, and site of the nightly open-air live action "Texas" musical, with horse riders, big sky, fireworks, and quite the backdrop. Solid social, industrial, and natural history museum as well, and a B&B where artist Georgia O'Keefe spent an extended stay. Below, Buffs for Christ,an athletic boosters organization with a mission.

Live stream says they are still working on it and I can make out the grill through the blur. Thread should still have a pulse.

I can't unsee that.

As with all fads, when it comes to the end, it's fashionable to take a dump on the whole thing. So let's do that and go out feeling good about ourselves, shall we?

Apparently working at the place is a hit with cowgirl cosplay kids, not so much for others.

And there's this:

Interesting. I think of O'Keefe for her NY (Radiator Building and Brooklyn Bridge) paintings and florals. I had forgotten (or never knew) about her western paintings.
 
I think I'm in this until we witness greatness...

Pretty much my entire early understanding of O'Keefe was making vaginas look like flowers. Or vice versa.

I just had to see what Toot n' Totum was all about. I left disappointed.
"Fart n' Fetchum" is what my Amarillo hosts called it.

Also, in addition to Donut Stop, I got introduced to Braum's, Wienerschnitzel, Whataburger, Chick-fil-A (before it got to CT), and mostly small BBQ joints they liked...but arrived after the meat was gone from the world's largest open pit BBQ at the annual XIT Rodeo in Dalhart because we spent too much time en route at Gander Mountain ("Your Firearms Superstore") and Boys' Ranch.

Keep forgetting to mention that the locals universally panned Big Texan, and I think it was Youngblood's where we had a solid stockyard-type meat lunch.

And, finally, in addition to West 6th St.'s old Route 66 nightlife, Stanley Marsh 3's Cadillac Ranch art installation is now a site of endlessly spray-painted automobile bodies buried at an angle in flatland south of I-40 further out of town than originally; Sisemore's RV museum is a nice add-on to the Texas-sized dealership; and there's a monument that recognizes the Helium Capital of the World.

To make an Amarillo family visit more interesting than it might otherwise have been, we flew into Albuquerque, followed RT. 66, stayed at a vintage neon-lit Tucumcari motel, and circled back to Albuquerque by way of Taos, Ojo Caliente, and Santa Fe.

We didn't visit all, but there was LOTS of O'Keefe throughout: a dedicated museum, Ghost Ranch, Aquibiqui. In addition to the 'flowers,' lots of cow skulls and other New Mexico nature.

Lmao that’s hilarious

I mean what’s next on the ladder after the big tourist trap in your otherwise useless town
 
Oh Yeah!!!! Its back ON!


New (and I think IMPROVED!) camera angle from direct overhead. Better view of competitors plates, better view of Steaks on the Grill and FULL view of clocks! Cant see Sheriff's multi plate preps as well, but I think thats a good sacrifice for this new angle. Well done Big Tex!
