H.C.R. No. 148
HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
WHEREAS, A vibrant southeast Texas community, Bridge City has
become known as a premier destination for a food that's synonymous
with good times and good eating: the corn dog; and
WHEREAS, Bridge City has a rich history of bringing people
together through events and festivals that foster a spirit of
hospitality and camaraderie; corn dogs are an especially popular
food at these gatherings, and attendees line up to procure the
sweet-and-savory treat, which is made by coating a hot dog in
cornmeal batter, deep-frying it, and serving it on a stick for easy
consumption while strolling; and
WHEREAS, The origin of this classic American snack food is a
matter of debate, but it has become a signature delicacy in Bridge
City; local vendors and food establishments are renowned for their
expertise in crafting delicious corn dogs, and they have become
beloved enterprises that are frequented by locals and visitors
alike; a number of the proprietors operate on a daily basis so that
enthusiasts don't have to wait for a special event to enjoy a tasty
dog; and
WHEREAS, Whether eaten with ketchup, mustard, or more exotic
toppings, the corn dog is an all-American favorite, and it has
become an iconic specialty and a source of civic pride for the
residents of Bridge City; now, therefore, be it
RESOLVED, That the 89th Legislature of the State of Texas
hereby designate Bridge City as the official Corn Dog Capital of
Texas; and, be it further
RESOLVED, That, in accordance with the provisions of Section
391.003(e), Government Code, this designation remain in effect
until the 10th anniversary of the date this resolution is finally
passed by the legislature.
