Why Are Some Lubbockites So Fascinated by Glory Holes? Glory, Glory-Hole-lujah! I scroll through Reddit every day for work to see if I can find any new stories about Lubbock that haven't been snagged up by the big news people yet, and all I can say is...there's NEVER a shortage of people in town looking for a good ol' fashioned glory hole. Regardless of how straight-up icky I think it is to find a random person for such an occasion(in Lubbock of all places, where the STD rates are sky high), it just goes to show how desperate some people out there are for affection. Prostitution is totally illegal everywhere but Nevada, and this leaves many lonely, handicapped or socially isolated people in a hard spot -- literally.
