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.

Exaggeration is a BILLION times worse than understating.

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

He's been maimed and framed, beaten, robbed and mutilated. But they still can't keep him from the woman he loves.

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

Wrestling is a great idea. Most Texans think this is wrestling: | Go Clones!! Gig 'em Aggies!! Saw 'em off!! |
