Message: [QUOTE="Plebe, post: 3867237, member: 6927"] Golden Triangle refers to the region of Beaumont, Port Arthur and Orange in the southeast corner of the state. Allegedly the "golden" part was originally intended to refer to the lucrative nature of the oil business, as this area has long a very high concentration of oil refineries. But it's very much known as a blue collar part of the state and hasn't seen nearly as much development as other parts of Texas. Plus you never have to drive far to get that a whiff of that unmistakable sulfuric scent. [/QUOTE]
