Why I Can’t Go To Texas Anymore…: The Governor’s Rally
Amarillo, Texas
Diary, my life just keeps getting better and better.
We get to Amarillo about 3:45, and there are streets blocked off and people all over because the fucking governor is having a campaign rally. Davey drops me off and tells me Pansy (have I mentioned that her family nickname is Hurricane Pansy?) will pick me up about a mile away, in front of a burger joint.
Feeling VERY apprehensive, I begin walking at the fringes of the crowd. The governor is a Republican and not very popular across the state, so half the crowd is for him and half are against him and I see three fistfights, one between two women, before I go 500 feet.
Get to the main street I need to cross and as I’m crossing, I see a cop escort, the governor’s car, and riding with him, the congressman whose daughter is a wackjob. Son of a bitch recognizes me from the photo and starts yelling at cops.
I dive into the crowd and all I can think of to yell is “That Austin bastard is starting up shit!” This being Panhandle Texas, that’s enough to get things going and just about the time I reach Pansy at the burger joint, there a big riot getting rapidly bigger.
We start heading out of town via some crazy circuitous route that Pansy has in mind.
