    Alright so do we plan to continue the Fancy Dinner tradition?

    And start a fuckin awesome BBQ place tradition?

    I second this motion.

    I've been doing my research and SA is actually kinda rough for BBQ, especially near the convention center. There were two places on Texas Monthly's top 50 list last year: The Granary (not particularly close but still downtown) and Two Brothers (far). It looks like the best place is probably The Granary. We'd have to drive there, but it's texas, enough of us should have cars.

    there be a lot of places that are good to eat

    The Pig Stand, Sam's Burger Joint, Josephine Street Cafe are all right up the highway from the convention center

    of course being downtown like that, there's no shortage of good places to grub

    More granary research: their menu gets weird at dinner so we'd probably want to do that for lunch.

    if PAX were a little closer to the airport i'd suggest the BBQ Station at 410 & Harry Wurzbach

    hell i lived in san antonio for 18 years i should know more places to eat but the only reason to go downtown was for a) field trips to the alamo/zoo b) spurs games c) highschool football playoffs

    let me dwell on this

    I will be interested in watching people get crazy drunk

    Also, I'm a lightweight as well, but I do love me some good food. Plenty of great places to eat. (hint: the best ones are not in the tourist tap part of the Riverwalk.)

    in the interest of saving money, i know i will not be attending the convention

    however, i can tentatively say meeting up on saturday evening would be fun and would do my best to go

    yukira and mysst know how this goes though.

    i usually have some form of work, school, or family obligation derail my plans.

    I'm going because I've got my backer reward, but I'm kinda pissed because the 3 day passes sold out immediately and now my friends are waffling on coming.

    All three days, or just Fri/Sat like myself?

    I hear Sundays are pretty dead on the con floor by comparison so I opted to spend the final day chilling elsewhere

    All three; I figure I can knock out a heavy amount of overtime pre-PAX, so I can probably kick off one day for funsies.
    I will be in Texas

    enh it's just annoying/more expensive. i'll suck it up if there's enough to do all three days.

    what's the BYOC situation?

    When you buy the passes it asks if you would like them to email you to let you know BYOC reg is open.

    I can't believe we got through 3/5 of a QFG LP together before forum formatting (and cancer) made it a pain in the ass and I didn't know you were in SA.

    I feel like a terrible person for not knowing that!
