  1. Seriously, what is the motivation of a dude like this? Is it just as simple as being a click whore who sees the chance to grab the spotlight by being a contrarian douche nozzle?
  2. North Texas (DFW) not common at all. I'd say if it is common anywhere it would be Houston area due to mosquitos, but I don't recall seeing many when I've driven around down there.
  3. I'm in DFW and have DIRECTVstream and LHN is on Channel 677. I have the "Choice" package. Watch the Longhorn Network | DIRECTV | DIRECTV Insider
  4. I'll bet neither of you, nor your wives knew that Colt/Case's dad was a teammate of Jordan/Jaxon's dad. Absolute true story!!
  5. Literally the first result...
  6. for sure, I think it was at Randall's. You could get endzone seats for like $5-$10. Can't recall if a purchase was required or not as I was using my ~$25 all sports pass.
  7. Went to the Shoe in 2005, other than the periodic F-you shouted from the out-of-reach passerby I had a good experience but I think my experience was the exception. Also went up there for the OSU-Michigan game in 2018, sat in the "big cigar" section and was shocked by how some of them were talking and acting. They were killing Michigan in the game and the vitriol was flowing ( 50-70 year olds mainly). I was expecting that the 1998 Nebraska game would be a good parallel for this weekend's Bama crowd. Nebraska fans were very cordial, even in the loss, telling us how glad they were that we got to come up, etc. Great experience overall. That obviously changed dramatically by 2010, where we were greeted less cordially to put it mildly. BAMA has nothing to prove, they have won 6 titles in 14 years, etc. Certainly, there were several nice people who welcomed us and were very friendly but many more who were obnoxious and way too proud of shouting "horns down" to every person in burnt orange they could spot. My 10 YO was with me and at one point as we are walking over by the ESPN Gameday setup a group shouts "HORNS DOWN" to which I reply with a Hook 'em!! while continuing to walk past them. Then one of them follows with "Hey, Fuck you and your son!" I gave a quick head turn, found who I thought the culprit was, flashed him a Hook 'em and kept walking. My son asked, "why would they do that?" I told him essentially to not worry about what stupid people do or say. Overall, a good trip and wouldn't hesitate to go back for a game but won't have any faulty expectations of cordiality. Went to Auburn @ LSU in 2013 for a night game, had a great time but was wearing purple and gold. Will plan to go back when UT plays there, hopefully it won't be too bad.
  8. When I saw all the Bama fans on the Quad who couldn’t pass a TX fan without not only flashing horns down but saying “ horns down” I thought to myself we are in their head. You’re BAMA, you’ve won 6 titles in the last 14 years, your sign should be a big “ we’re number 1” finger and no one could say anything about it. But no, they need to make t shirts with upside down Bevos and spell out “ horns down” on them. My 10 YO son was asking why everyone is doing that? I told him that because OU does it All our opponents think it bothers us, but that I can’t really say that it bothers me or most horns fans I know much at all. I think it makes people look stupid and that they are more against us than for their team. having said all that, that was a fun scene last night and the secsecsec postgame chant was definitely a big middle finger to the mouth breathers. Glorious!!!

  10. Demetri’s for breakfast was tasty. One of the staff was wearing a longhorn hat and was taking grief from his coworkers.
  11. He used the same thing ctj typically uses in these situations. The sad thing is, he literally had a better title built into the body of his speech...
  12. @EyeSlapMidgets Board for selling stuff. Protip... HDMI ports usually are accretive to value. https://www.surlyhorns.com/board/forum/19-best-buy-coupons/
  13. Any suggestions from the locals for breakfast or donut places in Birmingham?
  14. hey at least he didn't steal "ball gargling" from you.
  15. Speaking of temps, this is the current forecast for T-town on Saturday...
  16. I bought on SeatGeek about 3 or 4 weeks ago and had the tickets electronically ( in their app) within 30 minutes.
  17. Seatgeek code for 20% off (purchased by Sept 5th, max savings $25 ) one purchase. So basically $25 off your overall purchase price (I don't think it is per ticket) if you're still in the market. LABORDAY23 Meet me in Section E. Hook 'em!!
  18. Sounds like a class action lawsuit if the right legal eagle got a hold of it.
  19. My buddy bailed due to an injury. I'm regrouping and bringing my 10-year-old son instead. Ok to swing by with him?
  20. Not a cruiser but had never heard of Silversea. Looked up an itinerary with them including Greece and saw this with a duration of 27 days 😲 I swear, I would most likely go insane on a boat (even a really nice one) that long. https://www.silversea.com/destinations/mediterranean-cruise/lisbon-to-athens-piraeus-wh240930c27.html
  21. I go straight to the cooler wrapped in a towel. Not saying that is the optimal method but honestly I've never considered resting on the counter and then going to the cooler. Will be interested to hear what others are doing.
