Your from Victoria if you have the "Passion" Bootlegged.
Those poofy mexican "fur like" blankets that all those kids sleep with, the ones that have spongebob, Spiderman, and Barbie.

hmmm, guess i wasn't born southside enough to make the connection.
You're from Victoria if the tree trunks at your high school are painted white.
Your from Victoria if your choices at a concession stand for a friday night football game are;
Roasted "Elote" Corn
Horchata
Fruit Pops
Barbacoa tacos
Budlight
Lime salted peanuts
Fruit tail drizzled in lemon juice in a styrofoam cup.
Your mayor has a GED.
you're really missing the total country hick aspect of vtown. duallies, glass paks, etc.
lmao@victoria. that city ing blows. it's funny to me that the surrounding even smaller towns look to "v-town" like it's the big city and . people from victoria should just be happy they didn't grow up in yoakum like some of my family did.
i don't think anyone has contested the cold, hard truth that victoria blows.
no
even so
still beats the outta dallas
negative, ghost rider. at least there is a bar scene that doesn't involve country music in dallas.
EDIT: Upon further reflection, Victoria is kinda like a suburb of a real city, but disconnected - real entertainment is simply not available nearby.

all your weekend plans, i've just been advised that the legendary tom-tom parade in yoakum is taking place. party of the year.
it's too bad that and the luling watermelon thump aren't on the same weekend.
Worked with a girl from Yoakum once.
Cute girl.
Big s.
Common sense of a wet box of rocks.
So who is 'Pepper'?
Who the is Victoria?
I believe this is Victoria:
I think we've made this comnnection before.... but when you were living on the corner of Navarro and Stayton, I was living on the corner of N De Leon and E. Commercial. We were probebly waiting at that light watching Pepper while you were riught next to us in bed with a pillow over your head cursing the railroad/cityplanning gods.
no !
guys showing up for school with mud all over thier boots because they've been up since 3:30 am fixing fences and baling hay to make some x-tra $$.
oh -and there are more churches than there are gas stations I swear.
Pepper is this guy that walks around town.... as a famous comedian once said "working it out". Alot of times he walks kinda angry, yelling at the air or making furtive gestures. Other times he just power walks with intent.
He's african american, in his 50's by now, he's not homeless - but apparently has never been seen driving a car. He talks quick and crazy - like a fast version of Steven Segal.
He does have marketable skills and has been hired for temp jobs by several contractors around town (3 that I know of personally, and 1 that I did the books for .. we wrote his check out to "cash") to do driveways, hauling, drywall, and clearing. But has never been known to hold down a long term job.
Pepper has his own fashion sense that he got from whatever planet he came from. Camo pants, black boots and a suede vest over a bare chest go great with a fluffy pink scarf, purple baret and a red sock on one arm. He's also been seen sportin his own Beno-man-bag. But on him it just looks like a deadly weapon. My personal favorite was the gold lame fanny pack from the summer of 1998.
It is generally accepted that Pepper has a black belt in some martial art. It is debated weather he is a Vietnam Vet.
And if you go a week with out seeing Pepper working out his personal demons while walking down Navarro or by The 'Other' Store... well then somethign is not right with the universe.
I have no intentions to ever go to Victoria after reading this thread. Well, maybe if.....
nevermind.
There's alot of reasons to go to Victoria.... Like the tractor convention, The world's tallest Fried pie, the first ant carnival..
That comment was a little over the top dude....
I don't have anything against Victoria...of course I've never lived there.
One of my fondest memories is the time I was making a delivery to South Texas Office Products on Navarro and something moving on the sidewalk caught my eye. It was the biggest freaking gecko I have ever seen. And not the talking insurance spokesman variety either. Those little (well, except this one) brownish yellowish ones that climb up windows. It had to be a foot long if it was an inch. Looked like a freaking gila monster. You know how many mosquitoes a gecko has to eat to get that big? Holy crap!
