Whoever is talking candi and jimbo signs, fuck off with anything not related to Texas or ou.  

This cannot be said enough. We are part of the best rivalry in sports and it is, by any metric, the biggest game in college football this week. It is a game that will define our season. Going to Game Day with signs taking potshots at aggy is, quite frankly, the most aggy thing you could possibly do.

I don't have a problem with one or two strangers with Candi signs making it on tv, but the vast majority need to be about the Ewok (he's a fucking millionaire now, not some poor college kid) Little Lincoln, Stoops and how much they all suck..

For those wondering where GameDay will be setup:
 
 
 
Since Fox will be broadcasting pre-game as well...are pom/cheer/spurs etc. splitting time between both? Good problem to have finally....and I'm afraid Fox will find their setup lightly attended.

Saw a tone deaf promo from Fox for their 2-hour pre-game show:  "...Heisman Award winner Matt Leinert...."
Welp, no question about which show gets the most attention now. I'll be dvr'ing both to watch later, probably delete the Fox one before watching.

I wonder if Fox tells CDC, hey we are the ones broadcasting the game, please make sure we are swarmed with fans...Then ESPN says hey we are a partner in LHN.. Advantage Leinart

I might need 11teenhundredbeer.com if I have to stay sober enough to drive from Ft Worth all the way to fairpark. Still waiting to hear from a friend that lives in North Dallas...we'd like to park at their house and uber/lyft/hitchhike the rest of the way.

Icehouse on the Midway.  The guy who owns it is a good friend of mine.

He also has a new place he opened last year right next to the UT entrance (west side at the 50).  Beer Barn.

All of his beers are 6 tickets, including Modelo Especial and some craft beers he's got (they're okay but nothing to write home about--made by Twin Peaks).

That's an option as well

My story from 2013.

My daughter is 6 years old and I've got 2 tickets.  Take the wife or daughter?  Daughter has never been to a game.  Wife says "take daughter."

Grey, rainy day.  We get on dart and it's packed and it's 95% mobilehoma fats.  Daughter is intimidated by the crowd and she realizes we're the minority and the majority looks scary.  I kneel down and tell her "don't worry, we may not win today, but we'll get to see Bevo and have some fun."  She's nervous - she's 6.

We're late because DART sucks and stuff happened, trying to get into cotton bowl we hear them fire smokey.  That's Whaley scoring a touchdown.  I look at her and say "that's a good sign, we better get in there."

We get to our seats, the sun comes out, and we experienced gridiron glory that day.  Case showed up to ball.  Daje housed a punt. 

Family restroom right behind our seats was a big bonus.  Daughter had a smile glued on her face the entire time and horns up.

We sang "hey hey hey goodbye" to the land thieves for a large part of the 4th quarter.

That day we were loud, we wore orange, and we stayed late walking around eating corndogs and enjoying the Texas State Fair, the proud victors of the greatest game in college football.

tl:dr - leave early if you're taking dart; take your kid to this game - you'll make a longhorn for life; ou sucks.

I haven't used DART since 2009 when they chilled on the tracks for like an hour and I missed the entire first half of the RRS. Did they ever get a kick in the ass and fix their shit?

I have used dart, both red and green line, since 2010 and never had an issue.

There also is six ticket beer inside the food pavilion (first building to the north of that main entrance on the west side).  I can't remember which booth, though.

 

Bailey's is back down to 6 coupons.  I know the owners, awesome people.

Last few years I have stayed in Dallas but if you take the first TRE from Fort Worth Saturday morning it's smooth sailing. 

You get off at the AAC (Victory) and board the busses they have lined up to drive to the fair as they fill up. 

Last time we poured giant bloody mary and brought breakfast tacos for the ride. 

On the return you can take Dart back to either Union Station or Victory.
