And for those who are going to Oktoberfest at the Pavilion next Saturday, we will have the game on whilst sipping on some great beers.

What is this sipping you speak of?

[JesseMartin]

I'm having one in AZ as well, at Rock Bottom in Arrowhead (Glendale).

Immediately following the watching party at Fairview Down Under, they'll have live disco and hip-hop music from The Boogies, for any that want to stick around.

Plan to have 4-6 of our crew at Fairview

[meangreenacct]

Wife and I will make the 1.5 mile drive over there!

[Rudy]

So, we have the watching party at the Alumni Pavillion, and in Fairview. Are those the only two? Is the Denton Hooters and Lewisville Twin Peaks hosting parties?

The MGC email today said they were having a watch party at Hooters in Denton.

That is kind of shitty since the Alumni Association is having one at their friggin' stadium.

How is this shitty? They made a deal with Hooters to be the official MGC watching party location. Oktoberfest isn't for everyone, I think options are a good thing!

[JesseMartin]

Yeah, it's kind of "two sides of the same coin". On one side, you hope to consolidate everyone into one event. On the other hand, you don't want to exclude anybody or make them feel like it's your way or the highway. So I'd agree that as long as everybody is gathering, even in multiple spots, to spread North Texas spirit...well, that's certainly a far sight better than things used to be. And having multiple locations also gives some exposure to the public and draws in casual fans. It would be great if half the county wanted to visit with the Alumni, but that not being the case, let's spread out and get more people to pay attention!

Bump. ;-)

Honestly....did an 18 yr old or a pederass decide on Hooters as the spot for the MGC? Food blows and their beer selection is pitiful. I can dig on the girls and what not but everything else about that place sucks.

You know, to keep it respecta-

Ah hell, you're right.

OK, as one of the organizers of the Oktoberfest, I want to say that I have ZERO problem with Hooter's stepping up to host away game watching parties. I think it's great to get local businesses involved with the Mean Green and the local Hooters is managed by a member of the Mean Green nation!

The Oktoberfest is a one-time thing...Hooter's will be showing all the away games as I understand it, so no problem at all with this one week conflict. I appreciate Hooter's stepping up to support the Mean Green.

I hope folks will come out this week to the Oktoberfest and help support Scholarships for UNT students, enjoy the game (a UNT win no doubt), drink some great beers and eat some great German food...yes, even you guys in the Fairview area...the drive is not THAT far, and hey, it's Oktoberfest after-all. Ha!

What really is great here is that we are seeing various options and opportunities for folks to watch Mean green away games...not the case just a few short seasons ago. So, it's all good...attend the one you can and would like...just remember...OKTOBERFEST will be the best one!

[Green P1]

I think I've lost the rest of my crew to the Untapped festival... But I'll still be at oktoberfest with bells on.

It has to do with the restaurant partnership agreement between athletics and Hooter's. I asked same questions.

[Andrew]

I think everyone shuld be out at the Alumni Pavilion. It is a one time thing. Why spread out the fan base. Still it would be cool of it could be utilized for other games that will be shown on fox sports 1!

I agree. I think it would be awesome to all be under the same roof at the alumni pavilion. At least for this one and especially since anyone can get in this go around. Edited September 7, 2013 by Andrew

Because Redneck Heaven is busy taping its new 'reality' show for MTV.

we differ on what a good tap selection is. Esp in a town that has East Side and Oak St. Draft within walking distance from one another
