A Bite of Whataburger History
Whataburger’s story starts on August 8, 1950 in Corpus Christi, when Harmon Dobson decided Texans deserved a burger so big and tasty you’d say, “What a burger!” His first creation was a five-inch patty served on a toasted bun—so big you needed two hands.
From those humble beginnings, Whataburger has grown into a 1,100+ location empire across 17 states, with more than 760 stores still in Texas. The orange-and-white A-frame design that used to dot our highways? That came from Dobson’s love of aviation.
Over the years, Whataburger has kept fans happy with staples like the Patty Melt and Honey Butter Chicken Biscuit, while also bringing back fan favorites from the “WhataVault”—like the Monterey Melt—for limited runs.

Celebrating 75 Years
This year, Whataburger has gone big for the milestone—limited-edition cups, new menu items like the Mexican Hot Chocolate Shake, and even an “Orange Out” event at Whataburger Field in Corpus Christi complete with fireworks.
But for folks in Lubbock, the 75-cent burger is the crown jewel of the celebration. It’s a chance to grab a taste of Texas history for less than the change in your couch cushions.
So, Lubbock—fire up that app, put in your order, and raise a burger to 75 years of making Texans happy. Just don’t forget the spicy ketchup!
