The Buc-ee Has Landed (Updated)

 Chaos and pandemonium reign supreme today on the Mississippi Gulf Coast.  

Can't resist.

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.

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.

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

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.

Honk for the Mayor! said...

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.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Sonjay Poontang and his band headline the night with a special steel cage, no time limit "loser must leave town" bout between Alan Lange and "Big Cat"Donna Ladd following afterwards. Kamikaze will perform his new song F*** Bush, he's still a _____. Did I mention there was no referee? Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease. However, in the true spirit of Separate But Equal, Don Imus and someone from NE Jackson will also sit in the dunking booth for an equal amount of time. Tom Head will give a reading for two hours on why he can't figure out who the hell he is. Cliff Cargill will give lessons with his .80 caliber desert eagle, using Frank Melton photos as targets. Tackleberry will be on hand for an autograph session. KIM Waaaaaade will be passing out free titles and deeds to crackhouses formerly owned by The Wood Street Players.
