    Anyone coming to Austin on Oct. 15 for likely the last Cy @ Bevo matchup?

    ... if so, the Austin alumni club is hosting another all-day BBQ tailgate party like they have done past years when Cyclone FB is in town: https://www.austincyclones.com/2022tailgate All the fresh-smoked BBQ and booze you can eat/drink on a private fenced-off lot just a few blocks from DKR...

    ISU game parties if you're coming to Austin for the big showdown ...

    So the Austin ISU club has to kibosh their big BBQ tailgate party they have done in past years due to ISUAA group policies around COVID. But there are club members still organizing some (responsible) parties both before and after the game if you're in town! Pre-game gathering: Scholz Garten...

    ISU Club of Austin doing another @Texas tailgate Oct. 15th

    Actually, this isn't a caterer for hire. Just a BBQ team of a bunch of guys with regular weekday jobs that just love to throw tailgates. They have been tailgating in that lot years before they asked the Austin club to join them back in 2010. FYI - An actual caterer would have added another...

    ISU Club of Austin doing another @Texas tailgate Oct. 15th

    If anyone here on CR.com came down to Austin and found our ISU tailgate (and/or Friday happy hour downtown), just wanted to say THANKS! We were a little worried we would not get enough people to break even. But the online orders finally came rushing in last week to the tune of 504 paid tickets...

    ISU Club of Austin doing another @Texas tailgate Oct. 15th

    Most of you saw that LHN decided today to set kick-off for 6p. Makes for a perfect day for tailgating starting as early a 9a. And that also makes the Austin club's Friday night pregame ISU party more palatable! So starting 4p to 9p The Four Horsemen on Austin's famous 6th St. will be offering...

    ISU Club of Austin doing another @Texas tailgate Oct. 15th

    No, the ticket blocks sold by the DFW alumni club are in other areas and are indeed all sold out as of today. But the UT ticket office recently let us know they had a couple of extra rows open up in the designated ISU visitors section off the field right behind where they put all of the players'...

    ISU Club of Austin doing another @Texas tailgate Oct. 15th

    If anyone is thinking of a last minute Austin trip the ISU club here just worked out a couple more rows (~40 seats left) with the UT ticket office to sit immediately behind the ISU players' parents/staff. 17 or 18 rows up from the field across Section 32, SE goalzone (the usual designated...

    ISU Club of Austin doing another @Texas tailgate Oct. 15th

    [Update: Also see below for extra game tickets available behind ISU player's family section as well as an official Friday night ISU pregame party] Just a heads up that given the Cyclones come down to face the Longhorns in another month, the Austin club will be throwing an all day tailgate again...

    Parking @TCU game?

    The discounted passes are sold out but there could still be $20 spots in the overflow lot. Frankly this wasn't the game to procrastinate (especially hotels) because it is both TCU's homecoming and their Parent's Weekend.

    Any ISU alums living in Austin going to the game?

    Yep, UT ticket office friend said only about 7K tickets were sold total (Texas folk just don't understand basketball), so just go StubHub and print an electronic ticket. The blocks that were dedicated to Iowa State fans (that expired last night) are in Sections 39/40 and 94 if you want to try...

    Going to Austin? Read This!

    Forecasted high of 75F and cloudy (sorry if that's rubbing it in up north right now ;-) so we'll likely be out in the large courtyard instead of the banquet hall. If you haven't been here before the state parking garages starting just south of Scholz's along San Jacinto Blvd (one-way southbound...

    Longhorn Network thoughts

    Must have been the same guy running their 134-ft-wide Godzillatron. That guy has to get fired as I'm sure there were plenty of annoyed UT fans like us sitting low and opposite the field of play, too. No exaggeration that just about every start of the clock there would be the various "Make Noise"...
