Kentucky is getting a Buc-ee's.......

[AustinTXCat]

Here's another cool thing about Buc-ee's. During my stop at the Royse City, TX location last month, I noticed disposable face masks for sale: $4.79 for 50/pack. While I'm more of a cloth mask user, I'm sure pricing works well for some folks. Unsure about quality.

 

[UpstateNYCat]

Like all things Texas, they're overrated.

Wut? There's nothing overrated about HEB.

 

[Rebelfreedomeagle]

Who is you on the Twitter.com?

It's not me, I never tweet. Saw it shared by another fake account. Weaber Valley Speedway is another that's hilarious.

 

[WildcatFan1982]

Yeah I stopped at one outside Atlanta twice. On the way there and on the way back. Gotta say I've never spent $50 at a gas station without buying gas, but damn I got a lot of jerky

 

[Kaizer Sosay]

Buc-ee’s is overrated.

When I’m on the road I prefer to stop at a place with a much more tranquil environment. A place where one can purchase weed & meth to compliment their gasoline & beef jerky selections...all whilst receiving unsolicited, nonsensical philosophical advice at no extra cost...

Show me the fudge counter!

Looks like Buc-ees really likes to pack the fudge.

 

[Kooky Kats]

South Jersey has WaWa. Same thing with fist pumps.

Before/After

 

[AustinTXCat]

Saw earlier today. Buc-ee's also coming to Crossville, TN on I-40. They really are expanding and rather quickly.

I've drank beer with @AustinTXCat, but Gary Busey stood us up

Think I read where the Richmond location is hiring and will open soon.

 

[Cawood86_rivals]

I've seen it....looks close to completion

 

[GeraldV]

Pretty sure I saw something that said opening day was April 18th.

 

[FtWorthCat]

I live 10 minutes away from the one in Royse City on the Rockwall and Hunt County border. I frequent there whenever I work for lunch and gas whenever I'm working in the field. Glad Kentucky is finally getting one... You guys are in for something incredible!

I'm about 15 minutes from the one by Texas Motor Speedway, and it's kind of in my restaurant rotation. I go there when I'm not really sure what I want. Usually get a turkey BBQ and an assortment of snacks. I don't think I've ever even bought gas there.

 

[WildcatFan1982]

I had some turkey, bacon, and cheese sandwich there that was better than pretty much any fast food sandwich

It is close to where my parents live. Looks like a damn Kroger.

I will not be doing this:

With the lack of a Rest Area on I-75 from the Tenn. border to Georgetown the Buc-ee's location at that Richmond/Old Rest Area Exit is a piece of Marketing genius.

 

[Bigblue2023]

Heh. My baby brother is a Publix exec in Lakeland.

I wonder what he thinks about the Publix they’re trying to build in Louisville but it’s being held up by 1 or 2 HOA’s.

 

[maysvilleky]

Yeah I’ve seen now hiring billboards.

 

[AustinTXCat]

I wonder what he thinks about the Publix they’re trying to build in Louisville but it’s being held up by 1 or 2 HOA’s.

We last spoke a couple weeks ago. He mentioned expansion into TN and KY, but would not further elaborate. He added Publix is building more warehouses up that way. From what he's said in the past, if corporate meets too much resistance regarding certain new stores then they'll go somewhere else. Alternate plans and locations are in place.

 

[gobigbluebell]

I’ve heard good things about Publix. Jameis Winston famously stole crab legs from there because he found them so gosh darn irresistible. I would love to see Publix expand to my town, and end Meijer. I cannot stand Meijer.

it only took a few years for Top Golf to get started. Maybe by 2030 Publix will finally open

Yeah...I’m going to need an answer on Texas locations and when they are coming.

There a rest area right between Richmond and Lexington isn't there? Near Clays Ferry?

 

[J_Dee]

If it's the one I'm thinking of, it's been gone for quite some time.

Ahh, that makes sense then.

 

[Cawood86_rivals]

I will not be doing this:

Yep...it's big for sure

 

[Cawood86_rivals]

No...there is an exit right before Clays Ferry bridge but not a rest area

 

[Blue63Madison]

We use the I-75 corridor between Atlanta and Lexington frequently. Have stopped at the Buc-ees in Calhoun, GA probably a half dozen times. I’m 50/50 about the place. I can see why some people find it fascinating, and I also understand why it’s a one and done experience for some. It’s definitely not for everybody.

 

[gobigbluebell]

I cannot wait to pull in at pump #69.

 

[funKYcat75]

Uh oh. The Truck Stop wars have begun!

 

[AustinTXCat]

Uh oh. The Truck Stop wars have begun!

Let me put it this way: At both Buc'ee's I've so far visited in TX (Temple, Royse City), a huge sign sits out front stating "No semi's allowed". Richmond KY might be an exception.

 

[WildcatFan1982]

The one I went to in Georgia also had that sign.

 

[GGCAT]

Bucees taking over KY.

Now 3 locations in the works.

Richmond, Smiths Grove and Oak Grove (had to look up where this was....Christian County)

[WildcatFan1982]

I just want easier access to their jerky bar.

 

[Cawood86_rivals]

Hearing April 18th as the opening date. Anyone else heard this?

Yeah, I read that somewhere online a couple months ago.

Oak Grove location is planned likely planned near the Fort Campbell exit on I-24.
