Watch UNT vs. UTEP at The Star in Frisco!

[UNT 90 Grad]

Bring your favorite tailgating chair or blanket and come watch the UNT vs. UTEP football game on the GIANT SCREEN at the Tostitos Championship Plaza at The Star District in Frisco!  Game audio included!  Pick up food and drink from one or more of the 22 restaurants or 12 sports bars. 

Be sure to check out the upstairs patio at City Works overlooking the plaza.  City Works is willing to put the game on their big screen TVs when asked, and with enough requests, may  be willing to play the game audio as well.

Note that canopies are NOT permitted at the Tostitos Championship Plaza.  However, food and drink are permitted, preferably purchased from one of the Star District establishments.

Please respectfully socially distance and wear a mask when not eating or drinking.

Been working on this for weeks.  Wanted an environment where everyone could have fun and stay safe/healthy at the same time.  Lots of room to spread out.

This sounds like a lot of fun.  Thank you for putting this together.

Very cool. Well done Sir! 👍👍💚💚

Keeping all fingers and toes crossed that this game is actually played. El Paso is experiencing a rather large COVID outbreak at the moment. Hopefully the team can get “in and out” of El Paso, with a win of course, safely.

The situation in EP is dire.  I've heard they are flying patients out via helicopter to nearby hospitals because they don't have anymore room.

My step mom went to the ER Sunday night around 11:30.  She was in agonizing pain and couldn't walk (in her early 70s).  They basically gave her some morphine and nudged her into the hallway.  They just didn't have any room.  She's past the worst of the pain and will see her doctor today or tomorrow to figure out what's happening.

Same thing I've heard. My uncle was set for a pretty important (life-saving level) surgery last Wednesday, and they stopped the procedure during prep because there wasn't an open recovery bed in EP or Cruces. It's really, really bad out there and I would totally understand if the game were delayed or even cancelled. 

And then they got a half inch of snow this morning.

Move the game to Midland.

I know of a really nice stadium sitting at the intersection of I-35 east and west (shout out to @PlummMeanGreen) that won't be in use Saturday.   They could always move it there.

Close enough to halfway: Apogee - Grande - Sun Bowl map

[bstnsportsfan3]

If the game goes as planned I will be at the watch party! Looking forward to it!

[UNTLifer]

I’m just being selfish hoping, praying and wishing they would play near me. I just want them to play somewhere. 

[greenminer]

Apogee is halfway between Denton and EP, right?

[KRAM1]

At the Radio Show...just heard. Game is off for Saturday. 😢😢😢

All - I’ll do my best to pull this off for a different away game.  Fingers crossed.  Stay safe.

For those wondering, it looks like we won’t be doing game watching at The Star this year.  Our remaining away games conflict with high school playoff activities planned for the location.  They are open to doing something next year, however.  Thanks 2020.

Wish I lived in the DFW area, but thank you for putting forth the effort to coordinate this event.  Sounds like a great venue and a great way to watch our away games with other MG faithful.
