Not sure, but you'd think it would be at least on one of their TVs.

Nice thing about the Allen event is that they will kill the restaurant music in the banquet room and crank up the game audio. You probably won't get that many other places (especially outside of Denton).

It just takes someone willing to organize it and work with Rudy's in Denton to hold one there.

Keep in mind that the event in Allen is being hosted AT Rudy's in Allen, not BY Rudy's in Allen.

Just out of curiosity, if I can't make it today, is this a common watching venue?

Do you normally have the party for all televised games?

I normally do this for televised or streamed away games. The location sometimes depends on who's carrying the game. For example, last year several games were on Fox College Sports, which many restaurants can't get through DirecTV due to some weird DirecTV rules, so I hosted the events at Fuzzy's, who has Time Warner Cable.

This year I'll likely do all remaining away games at Rudy's with a few exceptions. The Rice and UTSA games don't look to be carried or streamed by anyone, so I can't do those. The Western Kentucky game will be streamed, but it will depend on if I can get access to the HDMI port on the new Rudy's TV. I believe the UTEP game will only be streamed as well.

TMI?

Not at all! Thanks a lot. I have been really wanting to meet some guys from the board, but life keeps getting in the way. Just wanted to make sure I would get another chance at the Rudy's cause it is like 5 miles from my house.
