Buc-ee's is no doubt a Texas staple home of the always delicious Beaver Nuggets and the world's cleanest bathrooms, and they've just opened a brand new location in West Texas.
Well, sort of.
A brand new art installation has opened in the West Texas desert, about 25 miles east of Marathon. Unfortunately it's not a real store, but more akin to the Prada display near Valentine, and the former Target installation near Marathon.
While you won’t find Beaver Nuggets, brisket sandwiches or those immaculate bathrooms, Texas Rep. Brooks Landgraf of Odessa hopes that one day the chain will open a brand new, full-sized location in the Permian Basin.
He told his constituents according to KFOR, "I spoke with ‘Beaver’ Aplin, the co-founder of Buc-ee’s, a few weeks ago and let him know that West Texans would welcome his stores with open arms. As the company continues to grow, I expect we’ll see Buc-ee’s along I-20 in the Permian Basin someday in the future, but they’ll have to fill in the gap first."
Along with its many locations in Texas, Buc-ee’s is has grown more north and east as of late, with stores in Alabama, Florida and Georgia with more locations being built in both Tennessee and Kentucky.
Upon completion, the new location in Sevierville, Tennessee will become the largest convenience store in the world upon completion, and will be a whopping 77,000 square feet.
