    How is this a fact filled thread? It is about a tailgate in Houston. In other words, its a travel thread. What facts about that do you want to know that you are not being given? You said fuck it anyway...that you wanted to talk about London. So, start a London game thread.

    Sorry if my exuberance for life disturbs your boring existence.

    Very true. Coming from a West Texan.
  • No, it's West Texas. The capitol, really.

    That was established in one sentence, in one post. Cleveland Browns at Houston Texans. Sunday, October 15, 2017 1:00 pm Eastern (Noon local) NRG Stadium.

    You can stay at the Browns backers hotel, the Holiday Inn, near the stadium. Tailgate activities at BW3 in Rice Village the previous evening.

    You can go to this link to find almost all info:

    Now, what else do you want to talk about?

    So this picture was taken last night by my Houston friends before they played the cheaters. The drive on the left is the hotel I am at Comfort Inn. the entrance is the YELLOW lot, my friends usually are the first ones in line every game. We will be "curbgating" at that very spot until our friends show up. Now they tell me that we cant get in the lot until 9am, but a true browns fan knows that tailgating err I mean curbgating begins at 5am.

    Interestingly, I just came back from French Lick Indiana, and nearby is the West Baden Springs Hotel, built in 1902, and supposedly it had the nations largest enclosed dome until they built the Astrodome.

    I didn't see that good catch

  • So, I am all set.  Up until this morning there was some doubt about whether or not I would even do this trip, due to the fact that, unfortuneately, my daughter will not be able to join me for the game, as she has to attend a wedding in Virginia the very same day as the game. However, I have rearranged my schedule so that she can come into Houston and meet up with me on the Thursday before the game, spend Friday together in Houston, but then she must leave Saturday morning to be back in San Antonio to catch a flight that evening to DC.  I had even thought of switching my entire trip to meet her in Virginia, but she would have been completely tied up with wedding BS, so we would have had no time.

    Well, I guess its good in a sense, because she told me that she would be rooting for the fucking DumbAssTexans. Now we get to avoid that fight!😆

    Actually, I thought she was a Cowboy fan...but, no, she said, she like the DATs better. Oi!

    Another thing that is making it finally possible to go is that I was able to secure a free flight. (well....an $11.20 flight...as the taxes had to be paid). But I have to fly into Gulfport Miss.  which is only like 80 miles from New Orleans.  So, I will be 2 nights in N.O.;  2 nights in Lafayette, and 4 nights in Houston, plus another night in like either N.O. Gulfport or the like.  Another great deal is the discounts from Hilton:  $45-57 a night in Houston, $49 a night in Lafayette,  $59-69 in N.O.  I am pretty much getting all these for less than half price.

    For whatever reason, that link is not working.

  • But...one other thing: still need a ticket.   Daughter cannot attend game due to wedding.

    Has anyone got a ticket, or buy an extra ticket that they have available.   Preference would be to sit with one of all y'all than by myself.

  • I am going to the game(s) AT Baltimore, Cintucky, and at Indy, I will not go to the game at Pisspuke even though it is only 30 min from my house, I will be going to the Home games against Pisspuke, Ratbirds and Bungles and Jets game. Don't have great seats but I enjoy them, up in the top section, will be under shelter if it rains 🙂 but tbh I like the top. You can see the play develop. Maybe I will get to meet some of you guys this year. Either way GO BROWNS

    If you are interested in tailgating with our group at the home games, check out my posts in the Tailgating forum. Several of us are also going to Indy, Houston and Detroit.

  • I will do that for sure. I know I wont be able to make it to Houston but the Detroit game is still a maybe. But I look forward to meeting you guys at the Home games. What lot do you guys park at?
