15 Spots Every 'Friday Night Lights' Fan Needs To Visit
USA Today

It's safe to say that some people take binge-watching to a whole new level— and I would be lying if I said I didn't overly invest my time and emotions in some of these TV shows, too. Some shows make more of an impact than others but for the ones that do, every little detail gets noticed as if it were their new religion.

"Friday Night Lights" is located in the fictional town of Dillon Texas but in actuality the filming of the show takes place in Austin and Pflugerville, which is roughly 25 minutes away from each other. Who would have ever thought? I don't know about you, but I'm just about ready to pack my bags and head to the Lone Star State. Road trip, anyone?

Although, there are tons more— here's the top 15 film locations of NBC's hit series, "Friday Night Lights" that every FNL obsessed fan has to visit:

1. Alamo Freeze

OK— yes this is actually a Dairy Queen but this is where the Alamo Freeze takes place in the show! Ice cream, for days.

Address: 5900 Manor Rd., Austin, Texas

2. Brian "Smash" Williams Residence


Smash Williams home. It's too bad he left the show in Season 3.

Address: 2607 E Cesar Chavez St, Austin, Texas

3. East Dillion High

Not too shabby. I'd go to school anywhere to land a chance of meeting (hopefully, marrying) Tim Riggins, tbh.

Address: 3900 Avenue B, Austin, Texas

4. East Dillon Practice Field

The only thing missing are our Panthers, am I right?

Address: 2271 Riverview St., Austin, Texas

5. Garrity Motors

PLOT TWIST: It's actually a Chevy dealership.

Address: 6328 Interstate 35 Frontage Rd., Austin, Texas

6. Kuempel Stadium (Panther's Field)

If "clear eyes, full hearts, can't lose" doesn't automatically come to mind when looking at this field, you don't love FNL enough.

Address: 1301 Pecan Street, West Plugervielle, Texas

7. Panther Field House

One side of the building was used East Dillon locker room while the other side was painted red for the merge to West Dillon.

Address: 1504 E 51st St, Austin, TX

8. PromiseLand Church

Ugh, how can we forget the time Tim went to church with Lyla

Address: 1504 E 51st St, Austin, TX

9. Ray's BBQ

The famous East Dillon hang out spot. Obviously, we can't leave this filming spot out.

Address: 6302 Monsanto Dr., Austin, Texas

10. Riggins's Residence

Bring. Me. Tim. Riggins. Please. And. Thank. You.

Address: 2604 Lehigh Dr., Austin, Texas

11. Saracen Residence

The only thing missing right now is Matt's grandma sitting by the steps watching him throw with Landry. Ugh.

3009 Kuhlman Ave., Austin, Texas

12. Taylor Residence

The home of the the man, the myth, the legend... and his family.

Address: 6805 De Paul Cove, Austin, Texas

13. Tim Riggins's Land

Oh, yes. The land that Tim plans on building his (our) future on.

Address: 7252 Burleson Manor Rd., Manor, Texas (this is probably farther down Burleson Manor Road from 969)

14. Vince's Howard's Residence

Troubled, but it's so hard not to love him. It's interesting though, do you notice what I'm talking about? (hint: we've seen this place before)

Address: 2681 East Cesar Chavez St., Austin, Texas

15. West Dillon High

The transition wasn't easy, but who wouldn't want to make a stop here? It was a huge part of this show.

Address: 1401 W Pecan St, Pflugerville, Texas

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Ah, yes, good old Hauppauge. We are that town in the dead center of Long Island that barely anyone knows how to pronounce unless they're from the town itself or live in a nearby area. Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.

1. It's easy to be fooled by shiny things.

Tamatoa created a liar filled with shiny things simply for the purpose of tricking fish to enter and become his food. He too experiences a lesson in how easy it is to be tricked by shiny things when Moana distracts him by covering herself in glowing algae so Maui can grab his hook.
