I mean, it's very ordinary people at work-men, women, and younger people-who rep all sorts of gear for it. Maybe they are all indeed "degenerate creeps," I dunno. Though I am (currently) in the Southeast for reference, so that likely has something to do with it.
Or maybe they just like to take a lot of road trips?
Again, I do like the place, but I'm not endlessly gushing about it or anything.
Plus the family that founded the place seems kinda shady, one of the founders sons got close to 30 years in prison for secretly filming people: www.kvue.com/article/news/crime/mitchell-wasek-bucees-cofounder-son-invasive-visual-recording-arrest/269-619706c1-fa15-49ee-9466-159fe4e33d57
They're also known for bullying smaller stores and companies with bogus lawsuits over designs that they think are even vaguely similar to their own so they haven't exactly endeared me in that regard(they even sent an artist a Cease and Desist over fucking fan-art, talk about petty): en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Buc-ee%27s#Litigation
The other owner has also donated a shitload of money to the GOP so even if there was one of these near me i'd think twice before spending anything there: www.chron.com/politics/article/Bucees-Texas-Republicans-GOP-Arch-Aplin-donation-16453133.php
