Description
Free 72oz steak dinner! The catch? Eat it all--steak, salad, shrimp cocktail, and sides--in just one hour! Big Texan billboards dotted U.S. Route 66, challenging carnivores to test their appetite in Amarillo. The Big Texan opened in 1960 along America's Mother Road--U.S. Route 66. 62,000 plus hungry patrons have attempted the eating challenge; 9,500 have succeeded.
The Big Texan's iconic Cowboy sign watches over travelers along historic Route 66 (the current I-40).
