Yeah, I hope to meet some people from the board, once I get my lot color I'll know where I'm at.

I actually have met you, Rickyb, Specnatz, Nitro Honda, Axman and a bunch of others back when I was on here under the screen name H-Town Balla #90 and we all used to meet up at 3rd Base during the fevered height of the KEYE CBS Austin leg humping of VY in a titans uniform and no Texans games were on TV. I lost my log in for the screen name and don't have any idea what email address it was on, so I started this one.

I was there that 1st game when we straight took the place over and had the Texans chants and everything going. Fun times to be sure!!

Anyway, hope to see any of you guys Sunday and all drive safe! I'll update when I get my lot color.

This makes trip # 74 and counting from Round Rock to Houston, and I prefer the 130 tollway to 71 to I-10 to Grand Ave Pkwy down to D-Ice's Garage in Sugarland!

Speaking of good food, take a side trip over into Smithville for some really great BBQ, Zimmerhanzels!
Man they have the best ribs, ever.

Go TEXANS!!!

Dan B. · 10-22-2009

Hruska's is delish, but the best kolache I've ever had was at the Czech Stop in West, Texas on I35.

I always took 71 to/from Austin, mainly because I lived in South Austin and my family lives in Sugar Land. I hate 290 myself.

Best ribs huh? I may have to check that out on the way back! I'm a brisket fanatic myself but can always throw down on some ribs!!

I think I know where that Ice House is but I may be thinking of another place. I always take 99 Grand Parkway from I-10. My family lives really close to the Highway 6 and Highway 90 interchange right by the Sugar Land Airport. I can't believe how much they have developed that area in the last 10 years!

Yeah, not a fan of 290.

I think I remember meeting you too but not for sure. I'm better with faces than names and screen names......

Yep, remember you well now that you told me that, hope to see you there, I am in Blue but making it over to platinum for the Blue Crew. If you don't get parking use the hotel lot across the street or the Holiday Inn, its like $20.

**stevn8r** · 10-22-2009

You ALL know I make the trek every home game (approx 40 games)..... 71 to I-10 to 610 to Kirby is faster by about 20 mins atleast! also you can gain access to any lot from kirby.
My Beautiful Bride gave up her ticket to a buddy who is a niner fan, so we HAVE to give him the business on sunday! Also a client of mine flew in from Cali today and will be there sunday so I will bring them by the Blue Crew for some pre game harrasment!!!
Can't wait to see you guys!
Go Texans!!!

Yeah, cool and thanks. That's what I wasn't sure on is when I get into Houston on I-10 if 610 to Kirby was the best way or not. Sounds like it is, so that will be my plan.

The buddy that is driving has never been to an NFL game before, so I'm hoping we get involved in some good tailgating. Show him how it's done down in H-Town!

We'll have plenty of coldies on hand to drink and share for some BBQ if anyone has got anything going........let me know and we'll be there with some Shiners!

Pay attention to the signs as you near the stadium. Different lots use different exits. For example, if you are in the yellow lot, you will exit on Main.

Thanks for the heads up on that. I'm gonna get my tickets and parking pass tonight, so I'll know what color I have. Once, I find that out I'll update to see if anyone else on here is in my lot and best way at that point I guess.

You're bringing a Niners fan to Blue Crew??? WTF??!?! It's on!

HTown2ATX · 10-23-2009

Just got my tix and parking pass.

I'm in Orange.

Person I got the tix from says the best way is exit Kirby off 610 then make my second left behind Reliant to hit Orange lot.

How far is it or how do I get to Blue if that's where all the action is and how early yall showing up cause we're down for whatever?!?!?!

So effing PUMPED!!!!!

GO TEXANS!!!

Just busted out all my gameday stuff (and I got alot)!!

HTown2ATX · 10-23-2009
