About Conway, Texas: Home of the Original Bug Ranch
Tiny yet unforgettable, Conway is nestled along a quiet stretch of Historic Route 66 in the Texas Panhandle, just east of Amarillo.
Despite its modest size, Conway proudly hosts one of the Mother Road's most iconic roadside attractions: the VW Slug Bug Ranch, affectionately known as "The Original Bug Ranch." Created in 2002 as a whimsical homage to Amarillo's famous Cadillac Ranch, this unique art installation features five Volkswagen Beetles buried nose-first into the earth, each vibrant with graffiti left by travelers from around the world.
Conway's Bug Ranch perfectly encapsulates the playful, spontaneous spirit of Route 66, where ordinary stops are transformed into extraordinary memories. Beyond its colorful Beetles, this area once served as a classic pit stop for motorists heading west, offering fuel, food, and a genuine taste of Panhandle hospitality.
Today, Conway remains a quick but essential stop for anyone seeking a quirky photo op or a moment to soak in the humor and creativity that defines the installations situated throughout the Mother Road.
Whether you're chasing legendary landmarks like Cadillac Ranch or discovering hidden gems like Conway's Bug Ranch, this tee is a wearable tribute to the offbeat magic of Route 66. Celebrate the adventure, the art, and the history: one unique town at a time.
