If you're gonna do live TV in Texas, You better have a football stadium in your shot...

Well that doesn't have quite the same ring to it as the Alabama song does it?

But I think it's true to a degree, especially when the story is about a small Texas town (Jacksonville).

Here are some photos of the Tomato Bowl... a stadium built during the 1930s. Home to the Jacksonville High School Fight'n Indians, also the place where Luke Mccown (Jaguars Backup QB) played his high school ball.

Those bleachers were the site of my intense history leson with the legendary "Man In The Texas Shaped Sunglasses."

So some other things about this town we didn't really get to talk about at great lenght.

It is the tomato capital of the world. We met with a tomato farmer named David who showed Justin and me around his 50 acre farm.

David is showing Justin some 'maters

Naturally this town also holds the world record for the largest bowl of salsa. It weighed more than a ton and the locals tell me it actually tasted good too.

But now it's time to say goodbye to Jacksonville, Texas... which is tough. It's been a great town to visit, though I'm sure the next 4 are going to be interesting in their own way as well. We'll see.

Mahalo,
