    Not sure what this is all about but I’m sure glad Yordan’s parents were straight and conceived him. Cuz without him the Astros would be up the creek. :eek:;)

    I'm one of them! I had no idea.

    No more $20 slices of pizza or $5 bottles of water for my kids!

    It's a gallon size zip lock bag and 1 unopened bottle of water for each person so load up if you're taking the family.

    There's a way to get a free soda or bottle water at MMP that many people don't know about. There's a designated driver stand kind of hidden between Union Station and the escalators. Put your name on a sheet and they give you a drink coupon. You can also do this at Toyota Center guest services station on the Bell St. side of the arena.

    This post reminded me of my brother. He passed away about 5 years ago. He had a wry sense of humor. His daughter had a kid with a drummer that he did not much care for. He asked me one time if I knew the difference between a drummer and a large pizza, then he proceeded to tell me that a large pizza "could" feed a family of four. Hope you enjoy that story, no insult intended.

    So 2 adults and 2 kids can carry 4 ziplock bags full of snacks and 4 bottles of water in? And that's in addition to my wife's clear purse?

    Nice. I thought I had heard them all but haven't heard this one yet. Well played!

    That's right! But they don't have a clear bag policy like NRG has. The food just needs to be in clear zip lock bags. Purses or other bags just have to be 16×16×8 or smaller. I go in with one of those Astros logo reusable grocery looking bags with all my zip lock food and water. Wouldn't be surprised if a clear bag policy is coming and maybe that's why they are being proactive with this Pride bag being clear.

    Does anyone else see that they're now offering a pride jersey on the 20th? Is this in leau of, or conjunction with, the backpack?

    Love is real - not fade away. No self loving person hates love. That being said, this thread is really about the stuff in which you stuff the stuff with which you stuff your face.

    Let's be clear.

    This team is carrying enough on their shoulders, and doesn't need any extra baggage while they're trying to swallow the tops and bottoms of a long, hard season. As fans, we should act as rock solid support, have their backs, help them regain their stroke, and clean up their mess so they can stick it to the other team and see through to another parade!

    This season is nothing less than the climax of a fabulous fairy tale of dominance, so I posit that we bear with them during this gap and help them pull out of this spunky funk like we did after Harvey. Let us once again guzzle the warm, sweet Milk of victory, savoring every drop as it oozes o'er our yearning lips and dribbles down our chiseled chins. Let us once again pound our opponents into submission and make them choke on our rising banners as we erect our dynasty!

    From the rim of adversity grows the heart of a champion. Sure, it's gonna be a tight one, but we won't stay soft for long. He who finishes last is a king crowned. Stamina and experience are our allies.

    Come on boys.

    Stars twinkle. Go Asstros.

    Not the red, but that of Yordong will be the last leg standing upright. Glistening in the sweat of glory's full release will it cast the shadow under which all others will quiver and tremble in fear.

    And they'll like it.

    If you change sports teams because of a backpack you're a bigot and a fake fan.

    Who would choose to be persecuted by society? That being said, I don't care if it's a choice. Whatever makes them happy. It doesn't hurt me at all.

    Maybe the Rangers will get canceled and then we won't have to worry about them for the division race.
