Game 2 was great. I was on the edge of my seat most of the game. My friends and I showed up early @ Legends, were loud, and stayed late! There were two or three other Rocks groups there and 1 lone Mavs fan - not a good night for him. Met up with a couple other Clutch BBS folks. Don't know if we want to go back to Legends (comfortable place, bartenders wear Rockets gear, all tubes on Rocks, food is mediocre) or try someplace new. Did anyone try Pluckers (better food and flatscreens). Still looking for someplace good in north Austin with a little better crowd support. GO ROCKETS!!!
We're all free to do what we want but I personally boycott Plucker's. Went in one night early in the season with a pocketful of spendin' money and was guaranteed the Rox would remain on the big screen. The Rox were bumped for the Spurs to a small screen far from where we chose to sit. Pluck 'em.
Me and my friends are up for anywhere ... BW3's was an OK place ... some other Rox fans were there. We can go anywhere that's not 21 and up as we're just youngsters.
I could do Plucker's, but I told the Pimp I would be a Legends and don't want to leave anyone hanging.
I thought most people ended up at Ringers. I was planning to head over there with other die-hard rocket fans tomorrow. http://ringerssportslounge.com/
seriously, where is everyone going? pluckers is right down the street but id be willing to go someplace bigger. i have a big party to go to afterward, so lets hang out, get drunk, watch our team win then go to a party.
monday, my crew was at austin's pizza on the drag...all day happy hour monday + rockets win = too much fun
omg ... it never occured to me to go there. i love that place. EDIT: although we're quite superstitious so we'll probably end up at BW3's again.
Not sure, but Legends did. It was the only sound they had on, aside from us Rockets fans giving the lone Mavs fan a hard time. I'm down for anywhere, but will probably end up at Legends with HUGE projection screen TV's, Joe Joe and the other fellas.
If you want to be fleeced, go to Pluckers. (Pardon the mixed metaphor.) The least pricy glass of very ordinary wine there is $7.00 + tax. Now that's horsefeathers.
Like to try Aussies or Ringers, but they're too far south - I'm sure I'll be drinking and celebrating our thrashing of the Mavs tomorrow and don't want too long a driver afterword. Legends was good for the last game - the beer and atmosphere were good. Would like more people to show, but it was good. Was seriously thinking Pluckers, but it's getting some negative run here. Unless someone can suggest someplace better, I guess it'll be Legends.
AWESOME Me and my boys were holding that place down on Saturday for Game 1... was thinking about returning this saturday...
I can't stand it anymore.... I used to work for both Austin's Pizza and Plucker's. Go to Aussies if you want to be treated like a human. Otherwise, enjoy being nobody to the people there.
Sounds like it'll be Aussies (south); Austin's Pizza (central); and Legends (North). that' ought to about cover Austin! Forget about watching the game at home tonight - get off your couch and come cheer on your team with the rest of us. No matter what the crowd is like at the game the team will be able to hear us cheer them on from Austin!! See you @ Legends tonight Rockets in 4!!
