It's a shame that Willie and Carl had to sell it! Stupid taxes!!! Now it's a Petro truck stop! I was just in there twice this morning and spent the night there last night! It's still a really cool place though..
@bigexodus are you shitting me? a petro now? what did they do with the bio deisel set up? I used to love stopping through there when I was on the road
Just last night I talked with a friend that had two lamps from Carl's Corner when Willie had his stuff there......looked it up and damn, the guy wasn't lying......good video...enjoyed,,,,,Caroline in Ohio
I was actually working there when they first started remodeling the spot about 3 or 4 years ago. guess who I run into Willie himself I went to school with Carls daugther I live about 5 or 6 mins away right in little Hillsbor Texas. I encourge every come see Willies place its real nice. Don't forget to visit the Outlet Mall in Hillsboro. Thanks for the tour.
I only live a few minutes from there and havent been in there since it reopened but i was in the old one and it was pretty nasty. Glad its looking better. Had no idea it was that big of a deal though.
Thanks for the quick tour. Hope I can get there but usually go to Houston when get to the lone star. Gotta twist dispatches arms to get across 35E. Been waitin for couple years got Willie's to open.
Now how cool is that!! You get to tour the place before it even opens...right on Tex!! WAYYYYY back in the day my friends dad (who was a trucker) took us down to Texas and we went into Gilley's...the one where they filmed Urban Cowboy...that place was really cool...all though I hear that it closed down not long after we were there.
I'd say a cool place. Hey, is the original Gilleys still open? Ya been there Tex? I got married in Halletsville, and did the honeymoon in San Antonio, but didnt make it to Gilleys.
That was a great tour!!! I haven't been out to TX since '97. That looks like a place that I would love to go to! Thank you so much for posting this! :)
Hey there Tex, Now that is what I am talking about. We all need to get together and party out one night and see Willie up on that stage. I will be back on the road in a few weeks. Hope to come by there and see all you veiwed to us. Keep truckin' there Tex. Keep up the great work and videos.
