Big Tex's Face Will Stay Creepy, According to this New Video

Sorry Schutze, and happy Tuesday to Alice and everyone else. Our favorite freaky-faced guardian of on-tap root beer, Big Tex, is under the knife. And according to this just released video from the State Fair, his face will stay creepy and long-nosed. Sigh, that's the Tex we know and love...

Take one minute out of your life to see for yourself. The music is terrible, so mute it and play the one I posted below the video instead.
