Y’all. It’s time.
The world is overdue for the most Texas-sized collaboration of all time: Buc-ee’s x Carnival Cruise Lines x Whataburger — all coming together in one glorious, beefy, beaverific bon voyage from Galveston, the spiritual heart of Gulf Coast getaways.
We’re talkin’ beaver nuggets at sea, Whatachicken before boarding, and the cleanest bathrooms ever to grace a cruise terminal. If that doesn’t scream “Ultimate Threesome,” I don’t know what does.

A Buc-ee’s Themed Cruise Ship? YES, PLEASE.
Imagine a Carnival cruise ship decked out Buc-ee’s-style. The lifeboats? Bright red with that smiling beaver face. The poolside drink bar? Slushie machines next to frozen margaritas, both served in a beaver head souvenir cup.
Midnight snack? Brisket sandwich AND a funnel cake, baby.
And don’t worry — we kept the iconic “We Have the Meats” energy but upgraded it to sea level.

Galveston: The Chosen Port
Galveston is already the go-to port for Carnival Cruises — but now it’s time to level up. Picture this: a new cruise terminal that’s actually the largest Buc-ee’s on the planet, right on the dock.
You walk in and are immediately met with:
- A 120-pump gas station (because why not? Boats don’t use it, but cars still need to get there).
- 27 rows of snacks longer than a cruise ship hallway.
- An animatronic beaver greeting guests in pirate attire.
- Whataburger right in the middle of the terminal for a pre-cruise Taquito with Cheese or Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit moment.
It’s basically Texas Disneyland with ocean views.

BONUS IDEA: The Beaver Coaster
Carnival’s already bringing water slides and roller coasters to the high seas — let’s take it next level. We want a Buc-ee’s-branded roller coaster on the ship with a massive beaver head as the front car.
Name it The Brisket Bullet. Or maybe The Nugget Rocket.
Either way, we’re riding.

Final Thoughts (And a Slight Obsession)
Let’s face it — this collab isn’t just a good idea. It’s destiny. Texans are already road-tripping to Buc-ee’s. They’re already loyal to Carnival. They already argue about whether Whataburger is better at 11am or 2am. Why not put the magic all in one place?
Carnival, Buc-ee’s, Whataburger — the ball’s in your court.
Let’s give the people what they didn’t know they needed.
Galveston. The Gulf.
Gas. Grub. Giggles.
Let’s go.
Editor's Note
This blog post is purely satirical and just for fun. While we’d absolutely love to see Buc-ee’s, Carnival Cruise Lines, and Whataburger team up for the ultimate Texas-sized cruise experience, this is just a playful dream scenario—not an actual collaboration (yet!). All brand references are made with admiration and humor.
