My wife and I recently had our first Buc-ee's experience. I was amused the entire time as we wound through crowds of otherwise normal-looking people who had succumbed to this particular form of American showmanship known as Buc-ee's. With touchless credit card payments now being common, the smell of burning plastic is largely gone from the experience. But it wasn't long ago that it mixed in with the roasted side of beef and the unmistakable scent of newly arrived Chinese made t-shirts and keychains. Like New Orleans and Las Vegas, every American should make a visit just to say you've been.

Alas, I have never experienced Buc-ee’s nor South of the Border. That you can “appreciate” a Buc-ee experience and a Paris experience speaks of your sense of adventure
