dh777 Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 While in Austin last weekend, I happened to stop by The Texas Chili Parlor in Austin chili and some refreshment. We were all sitting around talking and my daughter pointed out this sign It looks authentic, I wonder what the story is behind it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SPRSNK Posted April 20, 2009 Report Share Posted April 20, 2009 I think that sign needs to be liberated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

socalwrench Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 I actually saw a Terlingua Chili Cookoff poster at a Chili's restaurant out in Santa Clarita. I didn't think much of it, until I noticed the logo- bunny, feathers and sun. It looked really nice. I guess the cookoff became big enough for Chili's to participate.

Come to think of it - I think I have seen a poster like that at Chili's restaurant also. I don't think they are authentic, possibly reproductions that they put in all restaurants Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank S Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 I think that sign needs to be liberated. Looks to me as if it has already been liberated at least once. There actually was/is a Terlingua Ranch; maybe it should be repatriated? I just "won" a TERLINGUA TX city limit sign on eBaY (more than 10 available). Seller has 1200+ pages of items in his store. I think that means he will make what you are looking for, $9.99 and $5.00 S&H. http://stores.shop.ebay.com/EZ-Street-Signs__W0QQ_armrsZ1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

socalwrench Posted April 27, 2009 Report Share Posted April 27, 2009 Well, I suppose they may be reprinted posters, but some of them may be originals. I just thought it was cool that Chili's participates in the Terlingua Chili Cookoff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sweet she is very cute and precious. You gave me a great idea I am going to frame my copy as well. I had to take my copy out and take a good look at it. You sure look like a proud papa and by the way nice Shirt I have the same one too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
