Sandy, TX is the smallest town in Texas. It's literally one person.
And, yet, I'm sure Sly has been there. Now, here he is to tell us all about it in 3...2...1...

And I bet they still have a high school football stadium that seats 12,000 there, too...

Actually the Arizona Diamondbacks have the largest in the world, made by Daktronics. It's not installed yet, but they do own it. It's like 20x the size of the current one and will be HD and have "zones" where you can put different info in different zones. So like the top left corner can have something and the bottom right corner can have something entirely different.

Wow, I never expected to see that little spot across the Pedernales River from the LBJ Ranch to be brought up on the board. While I never have been there, I have passed the sign for it as I was sliding into Johnson City a number of times when Mrs. Sly worked out of the Hill Country Bureau for the NBC station in Austin. Mrs. Sly tells me she covered a flood in Sandy several years ago.
If you are ever in Sandy, head over to the Feed Mill in Johnson City for lunch.
