Buc-ee’s, Bomb Threats, and Disciplinary Shenanigans at UT

It’s our first Friday News Roundup! Today, we talk about a bomb threat that upended a popular drag brunch during Pride, and dig into letters that the University of Texas sent to students who protested this spring. Plus, Buc-ee’s bad boy gets busted just as the company opens its newest largest gas station in Luling. We’d like to thank Tecovas, who makes our favorite Western wear in town, for being our exclusive launch sponsor. Want some more Austin news? Then make sure to sign up for our Hey Austin newsletter.
