Marfa, Texas is a very haunted place, way out in the southwest Texas desert where it's super dark, super remote and home to all kinds of weirdness. Not to mention the famous Marfa Mystery Lights and, now, the Marfa Mystery Traffic Light.

There are some things though that are very polarizing in El Paso, things that peeps draw a firm line through where it's either "hell yeah" or "F no". Here are, I think, the top 3:

Every now and then, someone starts up that crazy, "New Mexico should annex El Paso" BS; insisting that it would be better for both El Paso and the 505. So, if that's the case, how'd we wind up in Texas anyway?

With sprawling landscapes and mild winter vibes, Big Bend National Park is where nature lovers find their perfect escape.

Depending on how you look at it, El Chuco is either dead last or best of the best.

El Paso's very own mountain range is a treasure, inviting everyone to experience its beauty and unique challenges.

Texas, (according to the Texas Tribune), is one of the top 6 pumpkin producing states, (in 2021, we grew 108 meeeeellion pounds of those suckers), and most of them came from one of our smallest towns.

40 miles north of El Paso lies one of the most sinful cities in New Mexico. Nationally, they ranked 117 but in the land of enchantment, they're #2.

As devoutly religious as Texas may appear to be, that isn't really the case according to a recent study. We're one of the more devout states but we're not even close to being the most hardcore.

The government shutdown is wreaking havoc all over Texas and the USA. In addition to federal employees not being paid, SNAP benefits have been stopped or reduced and travel is being impacted.

From El Paso to Austin, one man's culinary journey is transforming the food scene with a unique blend of flavors that celebrates his roots.

I think pretty much every Texan owns at least one cowboy hat. It's like a state law or something.
