Becoming A Real Texan

For Texas Independence Day I decided to do something special for y’all
Turns out if you’re ready, willing and have 20 bucks you can head to Huntsville, Texas and take a special oath in front of the resting place of a legendary Texan

Wow! I'm a native Texan and didn't know about this ceremony. My immigrant wife will need to go through this ceremony next year. Thanks for sharing this.

I am a former Texas history teacher and I had no clue this ceremony happens each year. Thank you so much for sharing.

I live near Huntsville and didn't realize they did this that's awesome....I knew they did stuff for Sam Houston's birthday but I didn't know this

[@angryjalapeno6686]

My parents moved to Texas a couple years back and I'm planning on moving there myself in a couple years. Definitely gonna have to do this

As a cousin....1st many times removed....I need to make a pilgrimage.

[@tonythediyer8537]

Unbelievable!! You went to Huntsville, filmed it, and didn't show the 90' tall statue of Sam Houston? He was the Governor of Texas at the time of the Civil War and refused to secede from the Union and others wanted it, so they kicked him out. BIGGEST mistake ever... Of course, he has other attributes, read about it in the battle for TX independence from Mexico.
