---|---|
Location | New New York |
First appearance | "Leela and the Genestalk" (7ACV22) |
Tex 1138's is a redneck bar in New New York. The bartender is a Neptunian. In 3013, the crew went there after Bender stole a cowboy's hat (7ACV22).
The bar has a stage for line dancing, which was used by the whole crew, and has a mechanical buggalo, which was ridden by Bender, Fry, the professor, Hermes, and Leela. Whoever manages to ride the buggalo for the longest gets a free steak dinner. It has a command centre, located somewhere in Texas. When Leela rode, the buggalo malfunctioned, and she was not able to let go, because, due to her squidification, her hand was stuck to the saddle, so the buggalo had to be shot. She rode for 48.3 seconds, winning the prize.
Leela seems to have eaten a bucket of hot wings at Tex 1138's. There is also a cowboy's skeleton on the chandelier.
