16 Things That Come To Everyone’s Mind When They Think Of Texas

Certain things just have Texas written all over them, and you can't help but associate them with our amazing state whenever they cross your mind. No matter where you are in the country, you will surely remember all of these things when you think about Texas.

1) Cowboys, obviously. Texas just wouldn't be Texas without 'em!

2) Cowboy boots. Whether riding horses or just going out on the town, you can't go too far without seeing a pair of these here!

3) Cowboy hats..see, even our own Eiffel Tower in Paris has one!

4) Wide open lands..the countryside is just beautiful here!

5) BBQ, one of our main food groups here.

6) Rodeos..they're a pretty big deal here in the Lone Star State, and one of our biggest forms of entertainment.

7) Farms and ranches, because Texans appreciate living off the land and being as self-sufficient as possible.

8) Chicken fried steak, another one of Texans' favorite food groups.

9) Dr Pepper..no meal is complete here without our favorite beverage!

10) The Alamo, one of the most important and historical landmarks in our state.

11) Churches...you won't go too far without seeing one, especially in the smaller towns.

12) Hiking in the great outdoors, and thankfully, we have so much of it to enjoy in the Lone Star State!

13) Ridiculously hot summers...

14)...and equally brutal winters (in some places).

15) Football..we all may have different faiths, but this is our universal religion.

16) True Southern hospitality..Texas means friend, after all, and we certainly live up to our name!
