Texas has placed at least 45 times as semifinalists since Miss USA started in 1952.
It has 9 Miss USA titles.
The glorious days were the five consecutive years that Miss Texas won (five times in a row) from 1985-1989. This would be really hard to beat.
I was looking at how Miss USA evolved through the years. There was one or two years that candidates were wearing blouse and pants when they were called as semifinalists. That was interesting.
I am wishing Miss Texas 2016 the best of luck, my home state.
