Sorry Everybody, The Viral Gun and Donut Store is NOT in Texas
I saw everybody saying, "God Bless Texas" this morning. Hate to break it to you, this little shop is nowhere REMOTELY close to us.
The Viral Photo in Question
For some reason, the photo above is going viral this morning. It claims to be a gun store that also sells donuts in Texas. Believe me, this would not shock me that something like this exists in Texas. Sadly Texans, you're spreading lies on the internet. Yes, this is a real store, but it does not exist anywhere close to us.
Ace Hardware and Sports Midland, Michigan
That's right, I have found this exact store and it would take you TWENTY HOURS to drive to it from Texas. Ace Hardware and Sports in Midland, Michigan apparently partners with a local bakery and sells donuts at their store as well.
Clare City Bakery Delivers Fresh Donuts to the Store Every Day
Apparently a local bakery was close to going out of a business in the town a couple of years ago and a group of local police officers helped get the donuts into other locations in the town to help them stay in business. (Insert cops love donuts joke here). Well, it has been a hit and the viral 'gun/donut store' is actually an Ace Hardware and Sports.
Where Exactly is This Mythical Store?
If you ever find yourself in Midland, Michigan. You can hit up the store at 419 East Main Street in town. Follow them on Facebook for more. Apparently they get 50 to 60 donuts delivered fresh each morning. So if you want to get some delicious donuts while checking out the latest firearms, this is where you have to do it. Once again NOT IN TEXAS. If someone wants to open a place like this here, I don't think anyone would complain.
