In the 60's,my uncle worked for NASA,so he generously gave my grandma & me his 2 free tickets to see Neil Armstrong honored at the Astrodome. We saw him & Frank Sinatra sang"Fly me to the Moon"! He voice soared in the gigantic place. An incredible memory to treasure. Thankx for this. I grew up in Baytown,so this was our station too.

😂 Not like the Lions did anything. Too much hate. Where I came from we looked at Dallas as southern Oklahoma, and the sentiment still stands today depending on the person. DFW folks are a different type of Texan compared to someone living in the same depictions of “flyover” country. Just 2 neighboring major cities trying to run the roost. Texans love the big and wide open spaces. That’s why the cities haven’t overrun the majority for now.

@@ATMAtim I grew up in Houston in the Heights. I saw my first murder 3 houses down but it was not my last. A lady had her face blown off with a shot gun. I was 13 years old. Next was the man shot in the stomach through a screen door. He was screaming and writhing in pain rolling around in a front yard. I think he lived, not sure. I saw, shootings, people killed in car wrecks, and so much violence I moved out of that hell hole at 17 years of age. Is it much better now..? You tell me. I moved to Spring Texas in 1978. I'll be God Damned if the city didn't catch up to me there. Ok...Now I'm 140 miles from the frickin place. Try to find me.
