  1. Debating a family trip due to some aggressive airfare deals. Is Costa Rica good with kids (4 to 9 years old)? If so, where should we go/do?
  2. Plenty in New Orleans outside of bourbon. I wouldn’t spend much time on Bourbon anyway.
  3. 1) Get one of these: https://www.ruralking.com/ratinator?utm_medium=cpc&utm_source=google&utm_campaign=shopping&utm_content=31019122&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI-aP2w7n65gIVB9bACh09kQbwEAQYDiABEgKyKfD_BwE 2) Catch rats 3) Drown them and discard them in the river so their friends can’t track their remains
  4. I vote tailgate. Then the party bus has a true degenerate destination
  5. Yeah, that was my reaction when I went to the original location. I think I had duck carnitas or something. Gloria’s margarita is better, it’s definitely “faux mexican” (it’s in West plano), but the skirt steak dishes are legit.
  6. Quick checks on costs - $65 - $140 / person for round trip. Assuming 12 hours - leave New Orleans ~1 for a 7pm game - and we get about 20. Price range depends on type of vehicle - shuttle vs actual party bus.
  7. I’ll second al biernats for great Dallas experience. Neighborhood Services wasn’t as solid last time I went, but you’ll get away with a smaller bill. If you’re willing to go north to Plano for mexican, check out Mi Dia for something unique and delicious - skirt steak with either stacked enchiladas or Chile relleno. They also have an extensive tequila list.
  8. Any interest in a round trip Surly party bus from NO? Not sure my group wants to stay in BR overnight

    Dallas | Pizza

    For sure. It’s not quite the same as it was in bishop arts though. Not better or worse necessarily, just different. I don’t know if this was the case before the move, but you can get some of cane rosso’s off menu pizzas (honey badger/bastard) at Zolis. I think the Zolis style holds the toppings for them better.
  10. L’auberge? When will they open up online booking? Have 4 tickets and want to lock down some rooms.

    Dallas | BBQ

    It’s been several years since I’ve been to Lockhart in bishop arts, but I’ve been to the Plano location a few times in the last 2 years. It’s consistently overpriced trash - some of the worst bbq I’ve had. I liked the original location. It wasn’t super consistent, but at least the food was edible when they were off. On a good day, it’d compete with Hutchins, Cattleack and PL.

    Any guy that makes a list with Lockhart above pecan lodge and cattleack at #4 can go fuck himself.
  13. I think the bitching about Sam is about like that okie state fan bitching about Yurcich’s 2018 season. Misplaced blame. He wasn’t often put in a position to succeed.
  14. Yeah. Sam sucks. We should cut him.
  15. more stats to tell the story then... 1) The conference in 2019 doesn’t compare to 2018. The big 12 was good last year. This year it’s a pile of steaming shit. 2) OSU went 4-1 against final ranked teams in 2018 including a real OOC game and bowl win. Wtf was that? 3) Sanders was far more dangerous than corn dog. 4) Kansas put up more yards and points against a historically bad Texas defense in 2019 than the pokes did despite having an all american at rb. Pooka looked like a heisman winner while Hubbard was an afterthought. 5) OSU went 2-1 against the top 2 big 12 teams in 2018 with the single loss being by 1 point on a missed 2 point conversion and terrible throw by a terrible qb on a great play call. Both Baylor and OU boat raced OSU in 2019. The game against Texas looked closer than it was due to turtle Tom.
  16. Do you blame him? Not sure I saw much reason to trust any of the others and CJ spent most the season the sideline.
  17. nice way to say go fuck yourself
  18. sure. I didn’t say I wasn’t one of them...just seems funny now
  19. Remember when everyone said burrow was a mediocre QB before our game? Surly is funny.
