Although he speaks and acts like a Texan, the "Rich Texan" is actually from Connecticut [1]. Mr. Burns once called him "Shady Bird Johnson" [2].
He is an active member of the Springfield Republican Party and speaks with a heavy Texas drawl. In Season 5's "$pringfield" (the Rich Texan's debut), Homer addresses the Rich Texan as "Senator", although this was never mentioned again [3].

One of Richard's fondest dreams is to build the world's first drive-through humidor [5].
Richard always carried two revolvers, and he had a common habit of pulling them out and firing them into the air while yelling, "Yee-haw!" whenever he is happy or excited. He has been to jail at least once when one of his stray bullets hit a Texas Ranger and the police made him switch to blanks, but he noted that "They just don't feel the same" [6]. He once held Homer and Moe at gunpoint, while forcing them to walk along with him after being tricked by the two. He once went over the top and lost his mind after doing something generous for Ned [7].
Richard revealed that he suffers from pogonophobia (the fear of beards and mustaches); he then promptly shoots at least one man dressed as Santa Claus [8]. He is also obsessive-compulsive [9].
