Typical Excentric Reader
This month’s typical Excentric Readers are Drew and Arie Smith of Fort Worth, TX visiting San Antonio for a weekend, shown here in front of the Mission San Antonio de Valero with their Excentric. Roughly 200 Texan defenders fought courageously here, but eventually succumbed to 1500 soldiers from the Mexican Army. Their bravery inspired other Texans, and 6 weeks later, the Mexican Army was defeated at the Battle of San Jacinto, thereby ending the revolution. While the Alamo has served as a variety of purposes, such as a church, school, hospital, etc., and even the alleged location of Pee Wee Herman’s bicycle. Remember the Alamo? We do!
