Only in Texas!

Texans are the object of many jokes, because we are different, and that is true. You have to drive everywhere, because Like Dude! It is a BIG State. We have cattle with horns that span 9ft across, we have the best B-B-Que, we have oil, high tech, and we also have lots of guns (largest per capita of any state). So where else but in Texas will you find a realtor that gives away Glock 9mms with the purchase of a house?

While other real estate agents are responding to the current buyers' market by offering extras like free appliances, televisions, or a weekend in a luxury hotel, one Texas agent is drumming up business by offering a free Glock pistol with any home purchase of at least $150,000 – if you're a police officer.

And Julie Upton, a Houston-area real estate agent, says her idea is working well. With the median single-family home in Houston selling for $146,000, Upton is targeting the center of the market.

...

She's already given away two Glock pistols.

"So (the ad) has already paid for itself," she told the Houston Chronicle.

Only in Texas!!
