Did they fix the plumbing at Tooter Fieldhouse?

I'm excited and worried to see what attendance will look like this year. Home opener on Election Night gets an expected low result. A lot of games over the Break, including one the Monday of Thanksgiving Week and only two Saturday games all year. I'm curious what Game 2 will look like tomorrow against NAIA Wayland Baptist. Doesn't seem like there's been much marketing for basketball yet.

Nah man. They certainly "play" for more on the battlefield, but on the football field, that means garbage.

I don't think that's Mercado. That was south of the square.

That's a great list, assuming Mercado Juarez is the Mexican place that I used to go to. There was a Mexican restaurant (possibly 2 locations), and I think they were owned by 2 brothers. One of the unique things about the place was they served a bowl of pickled veggies (cauliflower, carrots, mushrooms?,etc.) with every meal. Is this that place? I seem to recall it was located South of 380 and West of Carroll, maybe near Malone or Ector St., but that was 35+ yrs ago, so hard to remember. There's also a place called El Matador that I now see in Denton and that name sounds familiar too, so maybe that was it. I ate a LOT of chicken fried steaks (actually sandwiches) at the Texas Pickup and celebrated a lot of basketball wins in the late 80s at the State Club. I also did a lot of damage on "all you can eat" catfish night (Wed?) at Captain D's on 380/Bonnie Brae. Also, ventured over to Krum for catfish and ribs a few times at the Clay Pot.
