Austin’s Broken Spoke is a legendary Texas honky tonk, a place that has sent toes tapping since 1964. To celebrate its 25th anniversary in 1989, the restaurant/bar/dance hall opened “The Tourist Trap Room” filled with memorabilia ranging from LBJ’s hat to photos and sheet music. Through the years, this hall has hosted some of country music’s biggest names including Ernest Tubbs, Roy Acuff, Hank Thompson, Tex Ritter, Ray Price, Willie Nelson, George Strait, and many others.
