To obtain this point: One must visit the Palo Duro canyon and watch the musical drama Texas!
How cool is this for the Road to Texanacity!? How many other states have a musical named after their state? (I know, I know...damn you Oklahoma!!!) However, I betcha the folks in Oklahoma did not spend 50 million years carving out a amphitheater for their musical to be seen under the stars...Take that Okies!
Anyways, In the middle of a natural amphitheater that is nestled in a basin in Palo Duro State Park there is a show about the history and determination of pioneer Texans. During this show, there is music, singing, dancing, fireworks that combine to tell the story of pioneers in the Texas Panhandle. It is also one of the longest running musical dramas in the US (over 40 seasons). Before the show, you can even have a dinner from the Big Texan (see point number 28).
Information from the website for this musical: http://www.texas-show.com/
Enjoy Texas...and did you know that the Palo Duro canyon is the second biggest in the US (behind the Grand Canyon).
