What do you say about DKR? It's undergone some major transitions since my days as a student. I mean…read morethe jumbotro, the burnt orange fireworks, the drone shows. Game days and nights at DKR are a spectacle! Game days are swarming with people trying to get to their gates, lines of people trying to order food and drinks, vendors setting up in the middle of nowhere to sell beer, water, seltzers, etc. *Water from these vendors can cost you more than the stadium stores. I don't know how pricing is determined. You can find self serve stadium stores for water, drinks, and snacks. They also have free water filling stations so you don't have to break the bank ordering water, but these can be hard to find when hundred of thousands of people are around. They also offer many food options from Pluckers, Tony C's, SmokeyMo's, Stubbs, HTeaO, Amy's, and so much more. Download the maps to easily find first aid sections, food and drink locations, and make sure to wear your fitness trackers because those stairs are massive.

Darrell K Royal-Texas Memorial Stadium at Cambell-Williams Field is the football stadium for the…read moreThe University of Texas college football team. It has been in operation for over 100 years. It is a state-of-the-art facility that has continually gone through upgrades and renovations to enhance the fan and student-athlete experience. The stadium is host to numerous facilities such as the Moncrief-Neuhaus Athletic Center and Dr. Nasser Al-Rashid Strength Complex. The stadium has a lower and upper deck. There are also enclosed clubs and lounges in various areas of the stadium. Most of the seating is bleachers unless you are on the home side that have some seats with seat backs. There are many options for food and concessions in the stadium but the price points are very high. Shade in the stadium is at a premium and depends on the time of day. They are pretty good with crowd control but the stadium can hold over 100K people so can get very crowded. Now the field is a field turf surface. Parking is always challenging to find close by but paid parking is an option. Have some great memories in this stadium from watching the Texas Longhorn football team.

Thanks Yelp and someone named Kelly S... This was hilarious, catch up on the movie before going if…read moreyou need a refresh. They also show the movie before the musical starts - get in early! 3$ beer, 4$ wine and 1$ square service card fee per transaction. I would suggest arriving 45 min prior.

Free Night of Theater is a movement that is offered in 120 US cities including Austin, Texas…read more Every October most of the local theaters offer up tickets absolutely free for performances. The goal is to introduce people to theaters they have never been to before. If you want these tickets, sign up for their email list. Pay close attention to the time and day they become available as tickets go very quickly, often in as little as an hour. A variety of types of theater including comedy and musical theater are included. I've attended performances for the past four years and all have been fun and it has introduced me to a number of lesser known venues and performing groups (the large, well-known theaters such as the Zach Scott also participate).

There isn't a bad seat in the house and the acoustics are great. I've seen Broadway musical shows here like Hamilton, Rent, Hadestown, Shucked, Priscilla Queen of the Desert, comedians like Flight of the Concords and artists like Yuna. Go see a show!

Been putting off writing my 800th Yelp review, because I wanted it to be for something "special."…read moreSearched through my 186 "drafts" (yuppers...mostly three liners and such) and decided why not chat about the Austin Beer and Bacon Fest...absolutely two of my very favorite things and it was a stellar event! So, here goes... In a land far far away and all the way back in January, Edible Austin decided to host their 4th annual boozy foodie heavenly get together. Never one to deny a bite of bac or a chug o' brew, I bought tix for the hubs and I as soon as the posting went up. Absolutely worth every cent of 50 bucks p/p! Greeted by really friendly folks at this years venue - Brazos Hall. Got wristband and walked to front table to pick up our sample glasses and forks for bites. Brazos Hall was the perfect venue with just the right amount of attendees. The event was sold out, and I was happy to see EA didn't over-sell as is often the case. Plenty of room to peruse around and not bump elbows and no long lines for the many beers and/or bacon inspired dishes offered throughout. Beer samples were 2oz pours (a silly TABC thing), but it was easy to get your fill by simply going from one table to the next and make rounds, stopping by food reps here and there in-between. Beers on-site inc, but were not limited to, TwistedX, Hops & Grain, Live Oak, Austin Eastciders.....major shout out to all the local ATX craft beers I love so much. There was also a large list of local food vendors offering up some pretty tasty and creative bites. Amy's Ice Cream (yes, beer flavored), fancy smanshy Pink Avocado catering (one of the best of the afternoon; Panna Cotta Pecan Bacon Crumble w/ Bourbon Cherries ), VOX Table (yummy sweet "Elvis" concoction), and my personal fav of the day was Baton Creole's Chicken Fried Bacon and Pecan Waffle (omgoodness - so so good!)...plus more. Overall: What a great way to spend a Saturday! At first I thought 3 hours was cutting it kind of short; however, it ended up being the perfect amount of time to indulge in everything offered (esp. since seating was not available). 5 hard stars! Highly recommend. I know where I'll be after the fastly approaching New Year. ;) Cheers!

So, first things first, it's a *beer* and *bacon* festival. It's hard to get better than that, but…read morethe food was amazing and while the beer didn't quite live up to the food, it was a pretty good cross section of the Austin beer scene. I think the best thing I had was a bacon and beer sausage on a pretzel crisp accompanied by a beer infused goat cheese from Frank. I will definitely be going there to figure out what else they do. Hoover Cooking had a phenomenal roasted pork belly over grits with what I think was a honey sauce. There were 3 different bacon-wrapped figs and I liked Swift's Attic for the most interesting which was super peppery and Bacon (the restaurant) for the best traditional one even if it was saltier than I would have liked. My one regret is that I didn't take more and better notes to know where to go after the event. I'm going to have to poke around at the listed restaurants' menus to see what jogs my memory. For reference, these were the participating restaurants: Abel's North Grill and Tap House Amy's Ice Cream Bacon Barlata Celtic Seafare Cipollina Frank Greenhouse Craft Food Hillside Farmacy/Eden East Hoover's Kerbey Lane Lamberts Lenoir Liberty Tavern Little Barrel and Brown Micklethwait BBQ Noble Pig NO VA Kitchen & Bar OMG Cheesecakery Otto's German Bistro Pink Avocado Salt & Time Searsucker Snack Bar Swift's Attic The Bonneville The Seedling Truck The Turtle Restaurant TRACE St. Phillip Zed's And these were the participating breweries: Circle Brewing Co.
