Thats not so bad. In La i have seen korean on signs and in chicago i have seen Polish. Of course in Japan English is everywhere and it shouldn't be. (there would be one or two words in english while the other 50 words are in japanese. Its there just to be cool)

What about the nonexistent interchange at 281 and 410.
That was some funny shit though. I hadn't heard of many of those, but I've lived here my whole life. Guess I'm not old enough.
Butter crust was bad ass.

"You remember hamburgers from Whopper Burger."

Now known as Murf's Burger. They kept Burger King out of San Antonio for years until Burger King made a genuine offer to buy the rights to use the name in Bexar County. That's why Burger King never had a strong foothold here.

If it was JUST a tejano party then I could understand but it was a night club which had played rap earlier and some cheezball dance b4 that....

If it were a DEBUT or a wedding I could have understood...but a nightclub people....srsly....
