I like the idea of being able to walk to the game, drink it up, go to dinner, drink it up, then crash in a hotel room and drive home in the morning. Usually I go to my brother’s for big games because he smokes ribs, chicken, pork butt.

If you look closely you will see it’s two layers.
That's partially why I haven't gone. For away games we (brother/dad) typically watch together with food. Plus, I can't imagine what it's like to walk out of an away stadium if your team loses. At least there's some comfort at home knowing most of the people around you are equally miserable.

We'll be at UC Davis @ San Jose State on Aug 30. No other definite plans, but slim chance at UCLA @ Cal later on.

Thanks! Because some of us waited too long to book flights a few of us are getting there Wed afternoon so we will have time to check out more things. Just took a pic of your suggestions. The cpl friends who live in Texas and have been to Austin don't get there till friday so I will check these out before they get there.
I used to have to go to Austin a couple of times a month for work. I'd ask the valets at the hotels about their favorite places (without driving all over Travis County) and the ones I listed were the ones they mentioned frequently...sans Mexican Food. I could get a lot better Mexican food in El Paso than anywhere else on the planet so I passed on those. I also wanted to shun the "hoidy toidy" places.

I forgot this one. It is pretty close as well.

If you go to Hyde Park you gotta try Momma Kim's, Moo Kim's, Woo Kim's pudding...or something Kim's. That shit is addictive and has got to be a sin.

Taco Bueno's get the job done for me. Wish they would branch out of OK and TX

Never, ever, find an excuse to not drink beer on a football Saturday.
I know what he means. A few beers on top of that frickin' desert heat puts you out more than anything.

Need iced drinks....maragritas, vodka tonics, etc.

Nah...the old dives when the abuelas are cooking in the back.

This was my favorite Mexican food dive in EP. Kiki's Mexican Restaurant, El Paso, Texas

Nearly every soldier at Fort Bliss knows about it.

It is also the restaurant when that frickin' AD from Texas A&M met with Billy Gillespie....before he jumped in the bottle too far.

I've already bought tix for the TN-UF game, so I'll be there for sure. Tennessee plays here at @ Vandy this season, so should be able to make that one as well. Hopefully can catch the MTSU @ Vandy game as well.

I work 3rd shift so don't get to go to as many games as I used to.

Definitely going to try to make either the Army vs OU or UCLA vs OU games if not both. Probably depends on what’s going on so those may be game time decisions. Other than that, probably none. I will be in Dallas the week of the RRSO and would love to go but my ride won’t be staying so I probably won’t be either.

Hey Romeo you can catch a ride back from Dallas with me brother if you want.

I'd love to go to Jerryworld and see Ohio State and TCU play. But my wife is in a wheelchair and it's almost impossible to get in. I can't leave her.

Destined to be another season of watching on tv.

Considering the Clemson @ Wake game otherwise I'll probably do a hone game with my son which is usually a Furman or Ga. Southern type game. I'm not ready to subject him to the shit show that comes with the big games yet.

For the last few years, I go on a football trip, with a few guys I work with. We've been to Notre Dame, they went to UM (my brother-in-law was getting married), Penn State, Kentucky and Michigan State. This year, we are finally doing an OSU game. Granted, its against Rutgers, but still should be a good time.

Not a great slate of games but planning on going to Tulsa (Tulsa-Central Arkansas), Fayetteville (Arkansas-Vanderbilt) and Little Rock (Arkansas-Ole Miss) this year.

At least I won’t get to see us massacred by Alabama in person.

My son just came home last month after 4 years at Bliss. He ate Mexican food for the first time since coming home Monday night at a birthday dinner for his cousin. He said "It wasn't KiKi's" LOL
