Another tourist attraction in Groom, Texas is the leaning water tower. There are several stories about it's history. I have a tendency to believe this:
This Is Why It Says Britten U.S.A.: Located in Groom, near the Big Cross, is the Leaning Water Tower which is the last surviving element of the Britten U.S.A. Truck Stop. It was brought to Groom by Ralph Britten to serve as a tourist attraction and a reason for people to stop at his truck stop and ask questions. For travelers today the truck stop is gone -- but the questions remain. [Tom Landers, 06/18/2003]
