Some People hate the new Big Tex. Some say he looks like he has been up for 3 days wired, Some don't like his pants being rolled up, some hate his boots, some think he looks kinda poofy, but no matter what folks say...

Big Tex is back and he says, "Howdy Folks!"

He has a new voice this year following a contract dispute with the man who provided his voice previously.

The new person providing the voice was chosen from among 111 applicants and is from the Dallas area, Gooding said. That person’s name will remain a mystery, she said.

Since this is Dallas, does he now have a lisp?

I heard they are futzing around with the pants because there have been so many complaints.
