We’re back again to continue our Friday Night Lights walk down memory lane. We’ve covered a lot of the remaining locations already but still have a few more to go! This week we’re talking about one of the bars where Landry Clark’s band Crucifictorious played. It’s a real life honky tonk called Broken Spoke!
Friday Night Lights Filming Locations in Austin – Broken Spoke
Broken Spoke
3201 South Lamar Boulevard
This week’s filming location was inspired heavily by the reunion. Adrianne Palicki (Tyra Collette), who is yet another FNL cast member who decided to stick around and call Austin home, mentions the Broken Spoke in the video. It’s one of the few remaining filming locations that aren’t residential and we hope that doesn’t change any time soon. Especially since it’s famous for more than FNL but also for being on the cover of George Strait’s 2019 album Honky Tonk Time Machine. On FNL, the Broken Spoke was where Landry’s band Crucifictorius played a show in season one. That said, who immediately remembered Tim Riggins’ face when he went to see Crucifictirious play for the first time? Priceless.
