If you haven't been living under a rock, then you've heard the buzz about everything that is "Yellowstone". More specifically, "Yellowstone" in Amarillo.

Stars like Sam Elliott, Tim McGraw and Faith Hill have been spied prancing around town, but wait! There's more.....

Could the panhandle become a permanent filming location that will bring in stars on a regular basis? I only ask this because a certain hotshot Hollywood producer recently purchased the 6666 Ranch.

Who's the hotshot? Glad you asked.

SO WHO BOUGHT THE 6666 RANCH?

Taylor Sheridan and an investor group bought the ranch in May 2021, according to sources. Sheridan may not be a household name. His show however, is. He's the guy who created "Yellowstone" and has been responsible for bringing in the above stars to our city.

He's recognized as one of the best western storytellers, and judging by the popularity of "Yellowstone", you can see why.

WHY DID SHERIDAN BUY THE 6666 RANCH?

There could be a myriad of reasons as to why. Maybe he just liked the way it looked. But then again....

After doing a little hunting around on the show and its plans, I realized he's working on multiple spinoffs for the show, and they'll be filmed right there on the ranch. One will be the one soon holding casting calls in the area, 'Y: 1883' and the other is the eponymous "6666".

So is that the sole reason he purchased it? Nope.

See, the Hollywood aspect is just a small fraction of what will drive the ranch itself. The Four Sixes ranch is a real ranch with all the operations that come with it. They'll still be working cattle and implementing breeding programs, something that was likely made possible through this purchase.

I mean...have you seen the ranch? It's incredible....take a look!

MASSIVE: Incredible Photos of the Historic 6666 Ranch

The sprawling 6666 Ranch is one of Texas' crown jewels. Established in 1870, the legendary Samuel Burk Burnett built himself an empire of cattle and Quarter Horses.

You can imagine the shock that rippled across Texas when the historic ranch that is twice the size of Chicago was listed for sale.

And it was certainly double the shock when the news came about that Taylor Sheridan, the director of the smash hit show "Yellowstone" was the winning buyer.

There's much to the story of 6666 Ranch and so little time to tell it, but first: just look at the incredible photos of this sprawling piece of Texan paradise.

WHOA NELLY! This $4 MILLION Property Is Definitely Not What You'd Expect....

This is not what you would expect to see listed for $4M on the housing market. But the more you scroll, the lower your jaw will drop. This incredible, sprawling property is the epitome of "roomy". It's listed with Triangle Realty, LLC and you better bet your bottom dollar that we're curious as heck as to who will be the lucky one to snatch up this horse-lover's dream come true.
