The Best Little Whorehouse in Texas is based on the true story of legendary Texas Brothel the Chicken Ranch, which operated from the 1840s to 1973. It is under the proprietorship of Miss Mona Stangley, having been left to her by the original owner. Protected by a friendly Sheriff and frequented by politicians, football teams and others, the Chicken Ranch thrived in the small town of Gilbert, Texas. However, a crusading do-gooder Houston radio commentator and his conservative audience expose the Chicken Ranch, forcing it to shut its doors forever
