    If you frequent a whataburger, and prefer any fast food burger in Texas over a #5 or an A-1, I don't even know what to say. There is literally nothing available in Texas (besides the In-and-outs in Dallas) that comes close to WB

    They have a Jake's in Plano right? Think we talked about this before and I think I've heard of that place. My brother/sister in law live in Grand Prairie which is why I've been to Patty Shack, rest of the fam McKinney. "Dallas" area sounds easy enough but it's pretty damn spread out all things considered.

    Apparently people disagree. Also, not sure why putting A-1 on a burger is really that big of a deal.

    Nice. So it's in the Metroplex? Might have to check it out if I go to the Michigan-Alabama game.

    Me too. It's just that it's right on the other side of this epic shitfest of traffic from me and I just can't motivate myself enough to go through that for a burger.

    The support for whataburger from the state of Texas posters on this board is the only non anecdotal evidence we have on the hypothetical.

    Yeah, they have them all over. Just google 'Jake's Hamburgers locations". They're all over they place...

    Parker Road in Plano. Not from Dallas, but live here. I live right by Jake's in Uptown. Eat that ish about every weekend.

    And it represents a complete drop in the bucket as far as the population of Texas is concerned. No one is arguing that posters on this board from Texas don't like Whataburger, so once again, another completely irrelevant point you've made.

    Austin isn't really part of Texas. It's an anamoly filled with transplant hippies, trannies, and people who try way too hard to be hip.

    god damn I live off of Parker and had no idea there was a Jake's. there's a Gazeebo about 1 mile to the west and a Burger House about .5 mile to the east, so I don't get much further past those

    And hot sluts on Sixth Street. Do they still have those taco trucks in Lubbock that serve the bbq sausage tacos? Might have been a top 2 drunk food I've ever had.

    Fellow Texicans, if you're ever in the area, give it a try. Definitely constitutes as fast food, so relevant post is relevant.

    if you're talking about the place in the depot district then i'm pretty sure they're still there. haven't been in a while but it's possibly the best drunk food i've ever had

    Yeah, they have some decent drink specials for watching a game and plus, it's in a perfect area for just going out afterwards...LOTS of fine poon in these parts.

    Yeah, definitely was in the Depot district. I was drunk as hell, so I was just hoping that it wasn't a dream. I think I got harder from those tacos than the chick I left the bar with that night.

    Twisted Root is delicious

    Jakes is also good. Burger House has the best seasoning.

    Angry Dog also has wonderful burgers

    Also, Sonic has pretty much overtaken DQ in the rural market. The premise is still the same though.

    Good. Like I said to houtex I was hoping that it wasn't an elaborate dream. Only other drunk food I've had that was comparable was from a gyro truck by the Hilton on 53rd street in Manhattan.
