5. Jerry Jones’ Whataburger habits
Could “Hard Knocks” really wrap an episode without a peek behind the Cowboys owner’s curtain? Jones was not salting his McGriddle on this week’s episode, as was featured Week 1. But he was touting Texas fast food legend Whataburger, which it sounds like he eats nearly daily.
“About how many trips a week do you make it to Whataburger for me?” Jones asks an apparent colleague.
“Oh, at least five times,” the man responds.
The Cowboys owner says he “lives and breathes” the burger joint.
“I like Whataburger untouched,” Jones says. “I don’t care if it’s been sitting there for an hour and a half… I don’t warm it up. I like the original flavor when it’s coming out the sides.”
