Tigger takes some Brittish friends for a REAL Texas experience!
Good friends of Tigger Joe and Jack traveled from their home in Southern England to meet Tigger in Texas for a REAL Texas experience that included food, shopping, fun and more!! Early in the planning stage, though, Tigger KNEW that such a trip had to include the Fort Worth Stockyards Station!

At the east end of the several block area is the old stables now filled with shops, restaurants and galleries that offer a fun meander in a very unique environment!

At the west end of the Texas Cowboy Hall of Fame is the heart of old town with even more! Be sure not to miss eating at Billy Bob's Texas the largest Honky Tonk on the PLANET!!
