Texan fans in DFW - '08 watch parties

[grinch1134]

Alright, so Bennett is going to every game now. I was listening on the drive home and man I thought I was going to be sick. Good game, next week the Lions and we saw them give the other team points today.

Yeah - you missed the ending. What station were you listening on? My kid wanted to head out with the final 3 seconds and I told him the game was not over yet. (Texans still needed to finish it.)


Thanks for coming out and "lil Tex" did well for 3 quarters - kudos on pulling dad duties very well.

It was on satellite radio. Up until this year that is how I got my Texans fix.

Speaking as one w/o kids he was great this past week. Here is hoping we handle a team that we should win the game and probably pretty easily.

Our first afternoon game coming up - start thinking of a location.

Alright DFWr's we have an afternoon game coming up - any nominations for this Lion whuppin'? See post #12 for previous suggestions. I'd like to try Wizard's at some point, but doesn't have to be this afternoon game.

Probably a Mrs AT. tag a long week, we just looked at the options and she had no preference, so wizards is ok for us.

[OzzO]

Alright, Wizards it is. See y'all there tomorrow.

[OzzO]

Where the HECK are all the DFW Texan fans? You friggin bandwaggoners.

Wizards was a good place, seems like a KC homebase (got to see them cry againsr the Titans this week - good lawd, can some one stop them?) Maybe if we had our fans venture out of their casa, we'd show up in force as well.

[ArlingtonTexan]

wizards seesm fine as a place, but is already KC's home. I know there are plenty of Texans' fans throughout the Metroplex. every Texans at cowboy game has strong representation at the games, but we need to increase the enthusiam for coming out.

That said, for next week give me a couple of days as I may take a weekend trip

[grinch1134]

I'm in for this weekend and I should be sans baby so anywhere should be fine.

[OzzO]

Alright, so grinch is in, A-Tx, you in? Getting about halfway into the season, we can start hitting some of the top repeats or try something new. Anyone with a preference?

[grinch1134]

I liked Flips and Kerrs (though I don't think I want to mess with Kerrs since Dallas has a home game and coming in on 183 will be a nightmare).

If we are looking for some place new the Frankie's Bar - uptown Dallas suggestion from post 13 sounds good.

[OzzO]

Good call on avoiding the stadium area. I'm game for Frankie's - looks kinda uppity, but maybe it'll be a good spot - updated post 12. See y'all there.

Ozzo,

thanks for the call, but we were closer to home than Frankies when you got hold us. we stopped at a BWWs in Grand prarie to see the victory. I assume some the dallas crowd cleared, but after not seeing anyone and only a couple of Texans TVs we weren't feeling like we were going to enjoy ourselves.

[OzzO]

That's cool. Figured by that time, y'all weren't gonna make it back out. We must have just missed you as grinch mentioned seeing y'all walk the other way (we thought you were looking for an alternat eparking spot).

Once the Cowboy crowd cleared out, wasn't too bad. Kinda smoky, but better service than our other downtown location.

We'll set it up for next week - y'all start thinking of where you wanna hit (or re-hit) for the Viking game.

I'm out this week unless we go to restaurant/bar instead of a bar/restaurant. So I'm in for Flips, Kerr's, Buffalo Wild Wings or anything similar. I will have the little fan with me.

I liked Flips, so that one has a vote for me. None of the other options bother me though.

[OzzO]

Agree - I'm preferring the more restaurant / bar settings. Flips is fine with me as well. Updated post #12.

If y'all think of other places we haven't tried yet, make sure to post those up as well. This "random spot" location seems to be working pretty well so far. (If we could just get some more to come out).
