Description

Quick! Do you know . . .

  • Which college was the first in the world to award a degree in jazz?
  • Which state had the most drive-in movie theaters?
  • Who was the first person to push a peanut up Pike's Peak with his nose?
  • Who invented Frito Pie?

Well, all the answers can be found here in Texas.  "Texas Brag" is a long cherished tradition in the nation's second largest state.  But the fact is that Texas does have more than its share of unique people, places, events, inventions, and products:  many of them the first, the largest, or the only representative of its kind.  Braggin' on Texas takes an accurate but less than serious look at the Lone Star State--both past and present--by presenting some of the most obscure, convoluted, and occasionally outrageous achievements of Texans and their state.  So sit back and prepare to enjoy Texas as you've never knnown it before!
