TikTok Video Lists Killeen as one of ‘Lamest Cities in Texas’ to Visit
How do you feel about Killeen, Texas as a tourist destination?
Do you recommend it to your out of town friends when they are looking for something fun to do?
Would you defend Killeen if someone dogged the city as a terrible travel spot in Texas, or simply agree?

We're not sure if the user is only visiting, or actually from Texas.
Do You Agree?
You know, it's really easy to be negative about a destination. You can always find something to criticize!
There are lots of fun things to do in Central Texas in general, and in Killeen specifically.
Here's the shortlist:
- Rock and Roll Ice Cream Parlor
- Stillhouse Hollow Lake
- Mayborn Science Theater
- Pfeifer’s German Bakery
- Bell County Museum
- Belton Lake Outdoor Recreation Area
Clearly, this guy didn't stick around Central Texas long enough to try out any of these cool places!

So what do YOU think?
Does Killeen deserve to be on the 'lamest cities to visit in Texas' list?
While no area is perfect, I think you can't just dismiss all the cool things we have to see and do in Central Texas.
Don't let a random TikTok video spoil Killeen for you!
