    It is hard to believe TC is so near but all I can say is 2 weeks is long enough because I really can't wait any longer !!!!

    6th Street, Gumbos restaurant, the lake through the center of town, casual dress. Oh yes, baby, Austin is the place to live.


    Austin is a VERY nice place to live, plus I get all of the Rockets, Astros, and Titans games because nothing gets blacked out.

    That's it, I'm moving. I can't stand another day of the brown haze anyway. Swear to God I could NOT see the skyline coming up 45 the other morning. It's THAT bad. [​IMG]

    DaDakota, or anyone else who lives in austin.

    Well, this season, i hear the rockets have only 1 nationally televised game. Unfortunately I live in a private dorm, and I don't get Direct TV.. so no League Pass.

    I'm wondering if anyone knows of a good place close to campus, that I can catch the games. I already tried Mr. Gatti's during preseason last year..but I don't think they had it. =/ Pleaaaaaase help me out.. I'm dying to go out and catch some games on Tv.. when i'm not busy with homework.

    thanks,
    elie17

    Elie,

    I am not sure of many places here (in Austin) that will show the games, I get the NBA League Pass myself, and if you cant find some place, let me know, I wouldnt mind having a few Rockets fan with me to watch the game at my place

    I wouldn't mind living in Austin. It seems kinda layed back. I like Houston but it has
    alot of negatives like crime,dirty air,crowded,and traffic. Houston is like in the top ten in homicides which is not good at all.

    Getting back to training camp.

    Hot dam! I can't wait to see the new Rocks on the floor. Don't get me wrong, but all this trade and "who we gonna get" talk talk is kind of boring.

    PUT A TEAM ON THE FLOOR AND LETS GET IT ON!!!

    And its gonna be bitter sweet to watch the greatest center of all time go through his swansong.

    not really the appropriate forum for this info -- but there seems to be alot of rocket-less austinites....

    the tavern on 12th and lamar usually shows rocket games when pathetic spurs fans don't overrun the place

    shoal creek on lamar at around 10th is the home to many diehard rock fans.

    showplace lanes on IH35 has a sports bar and plenty of rocket games

    my buddy steve at the continental club will always show rocket playoff games -- even during a band's set ( he's got a big screen behind the stage curtain)

    hope this helps -- all of the above are better bets than the gatti's option
