Microsoft OneDrive Memory Of Gar The Texan At Booger Red's With A Buffalo Butt

The photo you see here showed up in my email this morning, purporting to be a Microsoft OneDrive Memory from this Day.

I do have some memory of what is in the photo.

Other than this photo was from a couple decades ago, my memory cannot be more precise as to something as specific as the day, or year, this particular memory occurred.

I may not remember when this photo was taken, but I do remember on the right that is the West Texas entity I took to referring to as Gar the Texan, due to his lazy laconic style and thick Texas drawl.

Sitting behind Gar the Texan, puffing on a cigarette, I believe that is Gar the Texan's German soon wife-to-be. If I remember right her name was Madaline or Madchen, or something similar.

The location of this photo was in Booger Red's Saloon, at the Buffalo Butt Bar. Or maybe it was having Buffalo Butt Beer at Booger Red's Saloon. 

This was a Fort Worth Stockyards hotspot at the time.

Figuring there was a good chance I may have blogged about Booger Red's and its Buffalo Butt association, previously, I entered "Buffalo Butt" into the blog's search function.

The first thing the search popped up was a blog post from 2017, with the same photo you see above, with my memory, at that point in time, not as faded as it now is.

The blog post was titled Throwback Thursday To Gar The Texan's Buffalo Butt Beer Swilling Smoking Hot German.

Reading that blog post, from 8 years ago, I see my writing skills have deteriorated. I'm not nearly as verbose in 2025.

Or as funny.

 I suppose such is a to be expected age-related malady...
