"Survivor" Texas style. 1 Year ago  
Due to the popularity of the "Survivor" shows, Texas is planning to do one entitled:
“Survivor, Texas-Style!”

The 8 contestants will all start in Dallas, drive to Waco, Austin, San Antonio, then over to Houston and down to Brownsville. They will proceed up to Del Rio, El Paso, Odessa, Midland, Lubbock, and Amarillo. From there they will go on to Abilene and Fort Worth and finally back to Dallas.

Each will be driving a pink Prius with bumper stickers that reads:

1 “ I'm a Democrat”
2 “Amnesty for Illegals”
3 “I love the Dixie Chicks”
4 “Boycott Beef”
5 “I Voted for Obama”
6 “George Strait Sucks”
7 “Reelect Obama in 2012”
and...
8 “I'm here to confiscate your guns”

The first one to make it back to Dallas alive wins.

God Bless Texas!
