Guestbook

Share your favorite Stuckey’s memory! Our guestbook is your opportunity to share those experiences with others.

Just about everybody has a Stuckey‘s story, recalling a time when they took road trips in the family station wagon and found “highway happiness” at one of our stores.

We would love to hear your most fond memories from yesterday or today, and we know others would love to share in your experiences as well. Please take a moment or two and post your comments in our guestbook.

I moved into my first Stuckey store at 6 weeks old and my parents stopped working for Stuckeys when I was 12.. I learned every management skill I have today being able to watch my parents. I miss the memories at Stuckeys..

We just passed a Stuckey on I 40 in New Mexico. Growing up we always stopped at Stuckey between Little Rock, AR and Ft. Worth, TX. We would eat lunch or get a snack of nuts or something. It's a tradition and fond memory that will never be forgotten.

Every year my family went on vacation to Florida. My sister and i spotted every Stuckey's between Arkansas and Ft. Walton Beach (going and coming). After we had stopped for the third time, and weren't out of Mississippi, my dad would say there was no reason to continue the trip to the beach, since my sister and I were just as happy to go to Stucky's. That would be the moment we shut up.....till the ride back home.

Man those where the days they would buy me a pecan log and a popgun and I would climb up on the spot at the rear glass and lay there and eat my pecan log and look at the clouds as we drove and I remember it being the best thing in the world . My grandparents have long been with the Lord and I myself am about to be a grandparent and I would love to be able to let my grandbabies feel that awesome feeling of seeing that Stuckeys sign and get as excited as I use to back then. Thank you Stuckeys for some amazing memories that have been had by so many kids and moms and dads we need those simpler times again.... Collapse

I started driving tour bus in 1980 from Ontario Canada to many destinations in the USA. All the older drivers were quite dismayed that all the locations had or were shuttering. They were a favored place to make coffee break stops.

I remember going on many vacations and always stopping at Stuckeys with my mom, dad and sisters. We were allowed to get one item from the gift shop if we at all of our food. I remember picking out the pecan logs and going over to look at the bee hive that they had in every store. Such great memories !

Who didn't a Stuckey's? They were the traveler's oasis; a comforting mainstay from their bags of pecans to their pecan log roll, cherry cider, food, novelties & many more untold treasures.. My favorite Stuckey's was in Williams, Arizona. I stopped there almost every time I passed by when on my way to my parent's house in Prescott from college at NAU Flagstaff. One time in the 1970s, a friend & I took a ride from Flagstaff to Williams & stopped at that Stuckey's. We were sitting in our -parked in front when the woman sitting in the passenger side of...

When I was a little girl, every summer Dad would take us to Hot Springs, Arkansas to visit Grandma and Grandpa Lewis. On the way there traveling from Texas we would always stop by Stuckeys in Texarkana and Dad would let us get a snack and a small souvenir from that place. They had all kinds souvenir things and of course alot of pecan logs! One of my favorite childhood memories!

We were talking today at work about traveling and what were our fondest memories. I live in Oregon and we traveled to Louisiana, Stuckey's was our favorite place to stop for pecan rolls, bathroom and cold drinks plus as kids we liked to look at all the cool gifts. As we were talking today I mentioned I have not seen one in a number of years, it was disheartening when I looked it up to see only a few in the mid and southern states. I miss that family tradition of stopping.

I'm very happy to know that Stucky's us making a come back, a historical moment in time, to bring them back for travelers vabd family's to have the same wonderful experience as we did growing up,and our own children.
