TEXAS (KAMR/KCIT) – True to the famous saying, everything is bigger in Texas – including its cowboys. Those who have spent time in the Lone Star State may have encountered “Big Tex” during the State Fair of Texas in Dallas, standing as an iconic mascot of both the event and the rest of the region. However, the 55-foot-tall statue is far from a lonesome cowboy, but rather has kin lofting high in the skies in other communities around the state.
