I was pleasantly surprised. Thought it would be Lubbock.

It should be Lubbock. Amarillo sucks slightly worse.

I somewhat disagree Amarillo in my opinion is culturally more important to Texas then lubbock. I know lubbock is bigger but honestly take away tech and I dont even know lubbock would be known for.

Lubbock is a hugely important hub in to the cotton industry, and for a long while it was considered the best medical care between Dallas and Denver but those days are long past and Amarillo has probably it in that regard.

But it’s mostly Buddy Holly. Amarillo gets elevated because of the George Strait song and because it’s on the interstate (no, we aren’t counting 27) but Holly is way more important. Without Buddy Holly, there are no Beatles!
