Houston hosts one of the biggest and best gay pride parades in the county, while Dallas’ parade pales in comparison. Yet, Big D recently made headlines by creating a direct link to gay travel on the Dallas Convention and Visitors Bureau Web site.
“Gay, lesbian, bisexual and transgender travelers spend $65 billion a year on travel and we want to make sure Dallas positions itself to take advantage of that,” said Dallas CVB chief executive officer Phillip Jones.

The Greater Houston Convention and Visitors Bureau Web site doesn’t have anything similar.
