Re: *** Official Texas 2014 ***

Definitely pit for both venues... did reserved at both last year and was disappointed (well not so much woodlands)

At least we get to tailgate in a bad part of Dallas lol

    Dallas is a dumpster fire. We all go because it's OUR dumpster fire.

    That said, there is usually a gathering of Ants at a nearby bar in The Woodlands, walking distance from the venue, and it's a great time hanging out there too

    Well now it looks like I have to see both shows now so I can make my own choice for future tours. I would definitely hang at the bar for a little bit before the show. Are ticket prices cheaper in Texas? I dont care about lawn price, I'm just wondering about the indoor seats.

    Prices are the same as the rest of the tour. $75 + fees and shipping for a reserved, unless they go up this year.

    As much as I love The Woodlands I think we'll end up doing Dallas and Tulsa.

    Also for the love of all that is holy I pray they put some port-o-pottys at the Woodlands this year. Having our girls piss into a Styrofoam cooler with the Arkansas people was a little much.

    Bausty still has the best quote on the Dallas lawn. I see him walking by on it (we were enjoying a beer at the top) and I yell out "Bausty, you on the lawn tonight?"

    His response: "Lawn? What am I, a fucking homeless person?"
