Had a sign saying "Athens". I ended having all the way closer to Dallas from a former hitchhiker who used to travel all over the country.'Dog', proudly republican and member of the band Black Ice.
Offered me money at the end of the ride, even if I told him he didn't have to.
Gave me his # as well, telling me I have a friend in Texas now, if I ever come back in the area.
Got pulled over by the police during the ride, but for silly reasons. Nothing happened.

I was hitching Southbound, directly from the highway. There is a huge gravel pad for traffic to pull off. There is a truck stop (Petro) near by.I got picked up by a big rig and got a ride all the way to Dallas, TX.

Not a bad spot at all - got across the whole of Arkansas in one trip and was dropped in Rockwall, Tx―Anonymous

Bad spot - Rockwall is the richest county in Texas and it shows. Loads of spotless dodge rams moving too fast to slow down. Traffic is really bad which makes things a bit easier, but better to wait on the interstate than the ramp as the frontage roads very fast and mainly local traffic―Anonymous
