Longhorn Foundation.  The Omaha chapter will probably do something as well, but there's are usually cash bars (with proceeds going to scholarship funds, which is why I drink so many beers at them).  I'm guessing this one is hosted bar/food.  Happy to transfer my invite to you if you want to take your daughter.  I cannot speak to the venue, arrangement, or any of that---I've never been to a LHF event in Omaha.  In fact, I don't even know if they've ever done anything like this before (certainly not in the four times I've been to the CWS).

Thanks, but my mom is going with us and I'm not sure how much pregame activities she'll be up for.

If you are staying right across the street from the park, you can go to OMF and come back and pick your mom up before the game without needing a vehicle. The hotels across the street, OMF, and the stadium are all really close together.

I am arriving tonight at 10. Will probably head to Slowdown after checking into hotel.

Unless anybody has any better Friday night options.

I'm to the point in my decision matrix where I just looked up the drive. It's not as long of a drive as I thought.

Probably not this year though. 

Sweet so you’ll drive next year while @Blanton and I slam beers on the way up? Sounds good to me

Woke up at 5am to find out my southwest flight at 11:50am (Austin to Houston to Omaha) originally arriving at 4:50 was moved to depart at 3:15 (Austin to Long. Beach to Vegas to Omaha) arriving at 11:50pm. 

I’ve been flying all week and the cancellations have been abnormally high…including one I was on Wednesday in Charlotte.

Said f this and loaded up the truck. Two hours out from Omaha now. 

Clear head…smooth drive…nice Texas DPS trooper warning for going a little speedy when he found out we were headed direct to Omaha.

Let’s do this boys!

I don’t know what kind of recs you’re looking for. I’ve never been there, but there is a Spearmint Rhino about halfway between the airport and the stadium(so, very close to both). I’m guessing it will be busy the next week or so.

What are you dragging me into this shit for?  I ain't even going.  I've done my 4 trips to Texas at the CWS.  Maybe someday, I can take my girls...but y'all have fun.  It's a freakin' blast.  Just help bring us home some hardware.

That's exactly the intensity and weirdness I was expecting just the wrong zip code on the receiving end.

Any other weirdos avail?

I’ll send you my invite code for the old mattress factory party.  Sounds like it’s hosted bar and right by stadium with a/c.  Gonna be a hot one Sunday.

I’ll be at the crescent moon for the early games Saturday and Sunday and then likely Mattress Factory right before the Texas game.

Can you send the invite code to multiple people?  I’m in the Foundation but haven’t seen anything.

Can you PM me your email address.  I have an old work one for you.  I'll email you the details.  You both have a great time, can't believe he's a sophomore already...last time I saw him he was like 2.

Only downside to the Delta club is if you're flying United, that's a decent sized trek to the gate unless you can sneak out a roadie for the long haul to the mid 20's.  In my old age, I've also come to realize that about 20% of the people taking last sips of their "bottled water" while waiting in line for TSA pre-check.  Yeah, they're sipping free vodka from home before tossing into the trash bine with all the other sipable bomb juice.  Saves money and you get a head start on airport bar/lounge drinks.  /hannibal

Very happy?  To be staying next to you?  I doubt it.  I've seen your table manners dude.  

In addition to that other thing, I'm gonna need you to go over to the Harrah's in Council Bluff's tonight and play some blackjack under my name so I can keep my reward status current.  Whatever you do, always hit double 8's.  Otherwise they'll know you're not me.

I will slit my throat before I hit 8s instead of splitting them.
