Big Mack is a hero to this city! We love this man!!! When he passes eventually the whole city will mourn him. Even at his age he is at his store EVERY day! (unless he's out of town of course) We have a few family friends that when the Astros won the world series all of their furniture was free! This man does not bluff. My family has bought a bunch of furniture from him over my lifetime. One of the last things we purchased was an estate desk for my dad. One of the men who delivered it told us a story about how when his mom passed he couldn't afford the funeral so he sold his car to help with expenses. Once Mack found out what he had done he told him , "son, why didn't you come to me?" He reimbursed the family for the funeral expenses PLUS enough for the employee to purchase another vehicle. This is just one employee out of hundreds. He treats them all like family. It's a beautiful thing. He expects you to work hard, but if you're willing to do that he will take care of you!

I was in the Texas City Buc-Ees in late 2019 when Mattress Mack just strolled in to to use the restroom. I was by the front where the registers were and I instantly recognized him. I asked the cashier closest to me if she knew who that was that just walked in. She had no clue until I quickly filled her in on who it was. I did not want to bother him as it was obvious he was trying to stay low profile and he would be swamped with fans if his identity had been made known to the store. I did see a few people introduce themselves and shake his hand. Another, more interesting tidbit I have about Mattress Mack is when my family and I had the privilege of staying a weekend at his lake house on Lake Travis. At the time, The McIngvale's sponsored a charity bike team for the MS-150 bike race. My father happened to be a member on that team. The MS-150 is a bike race benefitting Multiple Sclerosis (MS) research that ran for 150 miles between Houston and Austin. Anyway, The McIngvale mansion on Lake Travis is one of, if not, the biggest and baddest house on the lake complete with a private 4 lane bowling alley. It was a great weekend exploring that house and playing with the other kids. I was an older kid, so I was assigned the duty of being in charge of resetting the bowling machines when pins and balls got stuck. Don't worry, I was well aware of how dangerous those machines could be in motion and always turned the machine off before unjamming and resetting the machine. As you could imagine, with a bunch of kids throwing balls down the lanes, machines got jammed constantly. I was kinda of a nerdy kid, so I loved to be the one to have this responsibility and be able to observe these mechanical beasts in operation. Overall, it was a great weekend. Unfortunately, the bike team only lasted two years and the second year's team did not have the luxury of staying in the MicIngvale lake house. My father still does the MS-150 albeit he is now a member of the St. Arnold brewery bike team.
