    Didnt a bunch of our rides go to Fiesta Texas?

    I remember we had the season pass and took a vacation to San Antonio as a kid and it sucked back then, didnt have near as many rides as AstroWorld. The best part of that vacation that I remember was stumbling across the original Rudy's and the best bbq Ive had up to that point.

    Also, GET OUT!

    I've tried to enjoy TS, but even after this release, it's just not my thing. I love him for his Houston Love, but in terms of music....I can't....(ready for flames...like my emails)

    I credit him with creating a sound that nearly every other rapper emulates, but maybe I'm tired of songs without substance. And yes, I understand substance is subjective. But, when I listen to Royce/Joyner and switch to TS or any of the LiL Dumplings, the difference, for me, is enormous...

    But, please, give my cousin a listen. If you liked older Kanye/Common, this might appeal to you. Sorry for the plug...I rarely post in here...I'm not part of the cool clique :)

    Not the biggest fan of his music, but damn if his visuals arent entertaining. Hes got one of the most creatively out-there minds there is. Always appreciate the Houston love as well.

    Scott’s manager says that, during the festival, James Harden hit him up from the Toyota Center, where the Houston Rockets were playing the Sacramento Kings, and asked if Scott could maybe, possibly push back his headlining set so that Harden could catch it? Nothing doing, alas, but the Rockets won and Harden made it just in time to see Scott perform “Sicko Mode” anyway.

    His doc on Netflix is pretty good -- lots of old school Houston stuff. I had no idea how insane his shows were... those headfirst swan stage dives off the big stage are going to end badly.
