    Drove from Naples, FL to Kentucky yesterday and made my first stop at a Buc-ee’s. How have I not heard of this place?

    -At least 150 gas pumps
    -Legit nicest gas station bathrooms I’ve ever been in (individual room stalls too)
    -A deli, bakery and hot bar
    -A smoked meats station
    -An ice cream/fudge station

    I need one of these closer to home.

    I’m not sure because Texans don’t shut up about it and we have quite a few on the board

    Wawa is complete trash when comparing it to buc-ees.

    when the first buc-ees opened near jax motherfuckers were legit tailgating in the parking lot like there was a concert or sporting event going on

    I haven’t. It’s been a long time since I’ve driven 75, and there aren’t any north of Richmond, Kentucky.

    Buc-ee’s are the gas station equivalent of clogged toilets overflowing with turds.

    But they always have surprisingly clean restrooms lol.

    They don’t allow truckers there. That’s one of the huge differences in Buccees. No truckers. Yeah people prolly fuck in those stalls tho

    He’s from WV. A shitty gas station is where you take a date on a Saturday night. “I recommend the corn dog and the potato wedges babe.”
