 I love the Alamo Drafthouse, a movie theatre chain in Austin and now Houston which not only lets you order food and eat and drink as you’re watching your movie but they also host a few fun themed nights. Deesh told me about how he saw the last Rose Bowl when UT played and won the championship at Alamo Drafthouse. It sounded so awesome that Alan rallied a troop to do so this Thursday.  We picked the Ritz location which is downtown with the logic being we’ll be able to just walk out and instantly be able to barhop in celebration or barhop to lick our wounds. Sadly, we (or they, I was actually designated driver) drank to lick wounds. Such bad luck. Not to be a sore loser at all, but Alabama had an ugly win. They did not have the honor of playing the team that got us to the championship in the first place. Our star QB got injured the first two minutes of the game. I’m still very proud of our football team. Hook Em! |

I love the Alamo! They were showing “Rocky” one night, and they set up an area with a huge slab of frozen cow for people to punch like in the first movie.
They have decent food to.

Martin, So cool that you know what I’m talking about. They love showing Rocky I’m noticing. I remember I saw Twilight (shh, don’t judge) last year at the Alamo and they served Sangria in a blood bag. hee

They started early this season– I went to get some for the night of the UT game but they actually ran out! Marc went 2 weeks ago and he said they were good sized (not as big as it’ll probably be in a month or two, but still a good size!). I’m always down for crawfish!!!
I’m going to be in Dallas weekend of the 23rd, but I’ll be here the weekend after, if that’s when you’re coming!
