[Gallery] I went to the Battleship Texas today. 100 YEAR OLD SHIP!! AMA.

Yea, damn straight it is!

Since it's the ship's 100th anniversary, there were lots of old men who served on the ship, mostly 90 years or older being pushed around in a wheelchair by their grandchildren.

One was telling a story about how earlier that day, he demanded the staff to take him down to the sleeping room. They took him down there and he claimed that he hid some cans of fruit in the steel beams of the ship when it was decommissioned. Sure enough, he reached behind one of the rafters and pulled out some rusty old cans. Amazing that they had been sitting there for so long and had been left unnoticed for 40+years. Alot of cool storied passed around today.

thanks!!

Oh wow, old men who served on the ship, fuckin 90+ years ago... That must've been a really interesting experience for you. Funny how that guy still had his fruit cans there xD.
