Kind of interesting (to me) to note that so far with our first 13 commitments, we have:

(a) 4 from the Greater Houston area (Houston, Spring, Missouri City & Pearland), and

(b) 9 from smaller towns which average 27,475 residents (247,279/9). And, if you exclude Tyler, then the hometowns for the other 8 guys average 18,232 residents (145,858/8).

Yes, just like the East Houston Golden Nugget that Tilman Fertitta built a few years ago. While it’s a bit of a drive into deep East Houston, it’s a really nice place to have a great time!
