Tattoo Ranch: Famous Chainsaw, Live Rattlesnakes

The Tattoo Ranch is home to the chainsaw used in the original "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" movie from 1974. It resides behind glass for all visitors to see for free! This is a great place with lots of historic memorabilia from Texas and country music, and it has a cool "Urban Cowboy" collection, too.
