Dan Harris of Unit 44, in full Buc-ee’s beaver costume (right), and his son Aaron Harris (left), who flew in all the way from Michigan, met Buc-ee’s CEO Arch Aplin III (center) at the grand opening of Arizona’s first location on June 22. The Texas A&M-connected trio—Dan and Arch as fellow Aggies, with Aaron currently pursuing his online MBA from the university—wore A&M attire to catch the CEO’s attention for a memorable handshake and photo.
