      In tours at the Capitol they brag about how they tried it and they “figured out” that it was a “better deal” for Texas to join the union.

      They also brag about building their capitol building “for free” by selling a bunch of unusable territory to a rancher and then regaining it when they gave up or something.

      I don’t remember the details but the vibe was hilarious.
