    Thanks Bob, I think the first thing I'll have to do is get a new phone. I've been checking out the Houston Bar scene and it looks like a cracking place for a Beer up!

    They have quite a few local brew houses if you're into the craft beers/IPAs. The Karbach Brewery is pretty nice with good food?

    Brilliant! I'll write these down cos I'm a massive real ale fan and lucky for me, being from York I'm surrounded by the stuff. I'm also a keen Darts player so I've been checking out darts pubs and there's loads of em in Houston so happy days. That's the beauty of internet, when I check Karbach Brewery out it will even tell me what bus I need to get on to get to it. All pub recommendations will be checked out and that goes for Cleveland aswell, must be 30 years since I last drank down at the Flats. Thanks for your help.  

  • I'm planning on coming over for Christmas and New Year and doing games at Houston and the home game against the Jets. Last time I came to a Browns game I bought a ticket at the stadium but that was back in 1992 against Chargers. I've been checking the Browns website and I've come to the conclusion that there are no stadium ticket sales and that everything is now online via Ticketdisaster. I'm a self confessed Ludite when it comes to tickets on mobile phones and I've never been in a position where that has been the only option. It says on the Browns website that you need to download the Browns app, is this the only way it works? When I sort my ticket for Houston do visiting fans have there own section or is everyone just sat together with no fan segregation. The first game I went to in 1991, we bought tickets from a Sports Shop in Tower City, this was a Ticketmaster outlet. Does this place still exist? Many thanks in advance for any knowledge you can share.

    and there are others where you can pick what section and seats you want and is where i have had the best luck getting tickets,you just have to look around for the best deal and before you buy make sure you check for additional charges cause just because it sez a ticket is 200,you may end up paying 350

    good luck have fun

    edit: or you can just go thru a scalper at the game

    I checked out TicketMaster on the Browns website and there looked to be plenty of availability at both my games or have I overlooked something.

    Can't say I'm a fan of them myself. The sections I've been looking at look quite reasonably priced if I get in soon enough. Can I expect addons bumping the price up with them aswell? This advice is much appreciated.

    Seattle was my initial idea for a trip over then my sister went and broke her ankle so I had to spend time looking after her instead of planning my trip,  so everything has been put back a couple of months and Houston is looking like an excellent plan B. I'll check out those ticket sites and compare prices. Thanks for your help.

    Yorkie, my wife and I joined two of her sisters and their husbands for a 10day visit last fall in York. Loved going to museums and history lessons on the area. I had no idea the Vikings had lived there over 200 years. I did know about the Romans, but I had always seen Vikings as basically raiders and not domestic inhabitants. Loved the inner walled city including walking along the top of the wall.

    Glad you enjoyed your visit to my fine City.  My family name is of Norse origin and my ancestors on my dad's side were from Wearside which is another river north of York that the Vikings settled next to. So all that considered, I'm probably of Viking stock so I have an interest in that part of our history. They certainly left their mark on my City with many street names being Norse.  Hope you got to sample some fine ales in our many historic pubs.

    Yes, I did for sure. But we had to limit exposure due to COVID or risk getting stuck there if we came up positive with a test required within 24 hours of leaving GB. So we had to pick places with either outside seating or with areas within that were isolated from the main bar area. My wife reminded me that this was not last fall, but the fall of 2021, thus all the COVID requirements for visitors.

    There are two Irish boozers in the Old Town which should have the Rugby on, The Galway Bay is biggest and best.  Innsbruck is brilliant and surrounded by mountains. They've got a good Ice Hockey team with a cracking bar at the stadium with Hockey stuff on the walls. Two soccer teams playing next door to the Ice hockey stadium. And a space age type train that takes you on the mountain. I've been a good few times and I love the place. We go  there for The Four Hills Ski Jumping Tournament which is spectacular and a massive deal to the Austrians. Is your son doing a tour or just staying in Innsbruck?

  • I used ticketmaster when I last flew over (just checked it was 2015 man that’s gone fast ?) and the prices were not much different to what they originally sold for from the browns. But as I say, a lot longer ago than I thought!

    I assume you’ll be hitting up the Great Lakes Brewery !

    Thanks for the recommendation, I will certainly check it out. I see you are a Spurs fan, I've not done your new place but went to you're old place on many occasions from 90/91 onwards. Had some brilliant piss ups down there. Used to meet up with a good Spurs lad called Tony Parsons and Clair Tomlinson the Sky TV lass who would turn out now and again. Do you know either of em? Tony used to do the lot and go everywhere and drink in The Victoria. Have you ever had the pleasure of a day out in Leeds?
