- JOE: I'm Joe Jonas.
Over the years, I've toured the world with my brothers
playing in every major city.
But I've never had the time to explore any of them...
until now.
This time around, I've got a few hours to check-out these incredible cities
before I hit the stage on our sellout tour.
Today, I'm in Austin, Texas,
where I'm hooking up with one of the local residents.
- Hook 'em!
- JOE: Hittin' up SoCo.
- WOMAN: It's Joe Jonas!
- JOE: And betting on a chicken.
- You're gonna hold her just like a little football
and get her right up next to you.
- JOE: So, who better to introduce me to Austin than part-time professor
and the University of Texas Minister of Culture,
Matthew McConaughey?
- You've got it down now. - Yeah, not to worry.
- Oh, my!
- JOE: So, what days are you teaching them?
- I go in randomly. - Right.
I'd love to know what Austin means to you.
- Mm-hmm.
In a bar in this town, I get found, discovered by a guy who's casting.
I graduate from film school, I go out west and...
here I am, how many years later, it worked out.
- Right. Yeah.
- So, when I started a family, I wanted to move back here.
I feel creatively turned on here.
People are hospitable. People are creative.
People have challenging ideas.
People do not mind disagreeing about ideas.
- I saw that on the way in.
A-- a church with rainbow flags, it's like-- Yeah.
It's amazing. I lo-- I love the support and it's so diverse.
- We've got a time right now where we are becoming a metropolis.
So, how do we maintain our village values
while we embrace progress and become metropolis that we are becoming?
And so, here we are. Campus, University of Texas.
Fifty-two thousand young students, challenging tradition
about progress, right? New ideas.
Right there is the Capitol of the state of Texas,
a conservative red state.
And what's great about this spot right here,
is you have your tradition, government,
backbone, heritage, yet over here you have new ideas.
- The future. - You've got...
Where these two are crossed, where they challenge each other
is where we stand right now.
- This is incredible, I'm excited and...
inspired, I wanna see the rest of Austin now.
- So, get out into it, man. You'll be welcome.
- We are happy to have you here. - Love it.
- I'm glad you're happy to be here. - Well, thanks for your time, man.
- Yes, sir. Have a good one. Hook 'em. - Have a good one.
- Hook 'em! - Hook 'em!
Hey!
- JOE: Known as the creative hub of the city,
I've come down to the trendy South Congress neighborhood
to check it out myself.
The city's alive today.
I'm totally sold on this place.
It's a local hangout that celebrates Austin's quirky culture.
- WOMAN: That's Joe Jonas.
- Beautiful horse, man. Mind if I take a picture?
- Go ahead, man. Go for it.
- Thanks, man. All right, have a good day.
But Mathew's recommended a local bar,
which he says is unique to the city.
- Hello, hi. - Hi, how are you, sir?
- Good. Can I ask you what's going on over here?
All the commotion. - Yes, sir.
It's our Chicken Shit Bingo.
- Your what?
- Our Chicken Shit Bingo.
- Chicken Shit Bingo? Wow. - Yes, sir.
- And how does it work?
- What happens is I'll get you a ticket for two dollars.
If the chicken poops on the number
correlated to the ticket you have in your possession,
then you will win $114.
- You ready to play? - I'm in, I'm in.
- All right, you get your $2,
and let me get you a ticket. - OK, thank you.
- TERRY: All right.
- Chicken Shit Bingo.
Here you go.
I've heard Austin has character but this is something else.
- Has anybody played before? - Yeah.
- JOE: Has anybody won? - Him.
- JOE: I've got ticket 41, so let's hope it's lucky.
Here comes the chicken.
- So, I'm going to show you how to hold her.
You're gonna hold her just like a little football and get her right up next to ya.
- Like so? - Just like so.
And there you go.
- JOE: Does this-- Does this chicken have a name?
- TERRY: That's Patsy Kline with you.
- JOE: All right.
Hey, you need to make somebody good money today, OK? You got this.
You got this, OK?
- All right, girls, here we go.
- JOE: Oh, yeah.
- WOMAN: All right! - We're ready.
- Patsy...
Would she do anything that kinda signals she's about to shit?
- TERRY: Yeah, she'll kinda squat and open up.
That's what they do.
Just saying, yeah.
- That sounds familiar.
- TERRY: That sounds familiar, yeah.
- How-- And how long have you been doing this at the bar?
- Chicken Shit Bingo's been going on for a little over 20 plus years
every Sunday from four to eight.
- Church, I love it!
- Yes, sir. Church Sunday, that's correct.
- WOMAN: Church Sunday, that's correct.
- She looks like she's, she's getting ready.
Patsy Kline, of course, it does.
Patsy. - So, good luck.
- JOE: Oh, yeah! Oh, that's-- that's good.
- It is always a first timer that wins. Congratulations.
Good job, Patsy. - Patsy, we'll split the winnings.
- TERRY: Buy a Texas lottery ticket while you're here.
- JOE: Austinites, I salute you.
In America's fastest growing city,
I've experienced Texan taste with some Austin flavors.
I'm down with your liberal attitudes and community values.
Oh!
Like that?
- Yeah. - Ooh, yeah!
So, as your slogan goes,
here's to keeping Austin... weird.
- TERRY: Yeah. - WOMAN: Yeah.
