Suggestions for a Horns Fan

Clone Chronicles: Sitting Down with the Enemy: Burnt Orange Nation

Ryan from LonghornRoadTrip.com is driving up to Ames today and he wanted some suggestions on stuff do to in Ames that doesn't involve getting completely hammered. I suggested the old favorite in Hickory Park, but I'm sure he'd like more suggestions than I can provide. If anyone could comment in my thread on the blog, or here, I'll put up a link to this thread.

Thanks!

Is there a home wrestling meet tonight? Also is Ames HS in town? That is a fun team to watch.

Hockey games are always a good time ... but I think there was heavy drinking there too

Not since they stopped allowing beer in the new arena.

I don't think that they sell beer at the new hockey arena.

Re: Suggestions for a Horns Fan

Unless he's never had Texas BBQ, I doubt he'll be too impressed with Hickory Park; other than the fact that you get about 5 lbs of food for $7. I don't think HP can hold a flame to real Texas-style bbq.

I would say the wrestling meet would be his best bet.

He is from Texas. Tell him to go to Boone and go sledding. He can do BBQ in Texas

Re: Suggestions for a Horns Fan

Wrestling is a great idea. Most Texans think this is wrestling:
