Jesus, what a bunch of fuckin' fat asses. Americans are plumb embarrassing. I can't see anyone in that crowd storming any beach at Normandy. Maybe in Florida after a trip to Chick fil A.

To their credit, the Buc-cee's people have been hyping this for months with the local media's collusion. WTF? It's just a fuckin' convenience store.

Wish I could start a business and project an opening date that would have all the ladies wet and having dreams about it and people would be holding their breath to give me all of their money.

That's essentially what Buc-cee's does, apparently.

No doubt a bunch that hasn't missed an meal ! But get real its Buc-cees !Obvious you've never been to one ! rednecks fantasy store !

Good grief, people. Its cool that they opened one here. The dang things are enormous. Clean, nice employees, fast service, good employment for so many people. I think its great.

How much shoplifting too place? It looks like the right crowd for that.

Red Neck Walmart?

I agree with @2:49 PM. Enjoy it and be glad that Mississippi has a Buc-ee's.

Mussa not been anything good on television…

I've never personally understood people willing to camp out just to be the 1st to enter a building, but I'm glad we got a Buc-cee's and welcome the business.
I am sure if my travels take me near this one, my wallet will be lighter in the aftermath.

Who in MS will get the next one? Southaven? Vicksburg? Gluckstadt? Meridian?

The Coast and the rest of Mississippi are really two different places.

It’s pronounced “bussies “

Where are the most fat white people located? I’d say Desoto county

If you buy anything more than gasoline at a convenience store, then you deserve the fleecing you get.

I don't get why there's any brouhaha over a convenience store.

Once upon a time it was Stuckey's.

Starbucks for rednecks.

Yeah 6:09, I miss Stuckey's as well.

But the Beaver Cult highway shrines do have clean toilets.

That's much better than a Stuckey's pecan log, nasty ass bathroom, and a rubber alligator toy that has "Welcome to Vicksburg" stamped on it's belly.

Had my card info stolen from a mask wearing clerk at a Bucees several months ago. Sadly I couldn't prove it .

I do love their stores. But it’s embarrassing that we crow about economic development over a gas station.

For anyone who can't understand why this is great, and not just a gas station/convenience store:

$50 million investment
74,000 square foot store
200+ well paid employees. Some jobs pay six-figure salaries. 401k with match, healthcare, 3 weeks paid vacation
$50–$60 million a year in sales tax revenue
120 gas pumps and 24 EV charging stations. Buses and RVs are allowed, 18-wheelers are not
Open kitchen which produces everything from brisket to fudge.
The restrooms have attendants who make sure the facilities are clean.
Tons of stuff for kids on a road trip--games, toys, etc., all for traveling in a vehicle.

You really have to see one to get it.

Had occasion to visit the one in Leeds, AL several times over the last couple of months. Was it busy as hell? Yes. However, I rarely had to wait to find a vacant gas pump. It was crowded inside but I never had to wait in line at a cash register either. Clean as heck and if Shad has his way and does away with rest areas, we are going to be begging for Buc-ee's everywhere.

I like them too, to have that sales tax revenue they will have close to a billion in sales. Tell us how much they got in TIF money off the state and how many current gas stations they will put out of business along with the irony of giving TIF money to new private business to put existing businesses out of business. I just enjoyed saying that but it is a real thing. Interstate off ramp real estate beware.

Dang y’all look at the positives sometimes. I am 70 and plan my trips to stop at a Buc-eye’s mainly for the clean restrooms and a safe place to just take a break. Stop the hate!

Have traveled in Texas. They have a much smaller version around the Houston area say the size of a Shell Station, but still Buc’s.

Travelers finally have a reason to stop on purpose in the Land Mass.
