Hofstra Jets Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I live in Dallas so I'll be at the game. Any tips for tailgates or nightlife for Friday? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rex-n-effect Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 Any tips for tailgates or nightlife for Friday? No idea on tailgates. Most of that will probably be Cowboys fans. As far as nightlife it depends on what you're after and how far you are willing to travel from where you might stay. "Dallas" is really Dallas on one side and Fort Worth on the other with Arlington wedged between. Arlington has plenty of chain restaurants along the freeway by the stadium. I don't know that I would really call that nightlife. There are some college bars by the college (UTA) and a group of bars in south Arlington in the highlands. There's a bar (Fox and Hound) in north Arlington that is one of the few bars in DFW with a clump of Jets fans but I'm not sure it's a regular haunt for Jets fans outside of game time. Otherwise you're going to Dallas or Fort Worth. In Fort Worth you probably want to hit west 7th for a younger but larger crowd. Downtown for a smaller but more varied crowd. In Dallas you'll either want Deep Ellum or uptown. If you're staying east or north of downtown Dallas other options are available. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hofstra Jets Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 rex-n-effect Staying in Market Square which is a bit away form the stadium from what I understand. I would like to go to the JFK park Friday am, but after that, no real plans. Fox and Hound is around here, so I would probably go with something more authentic. Nightlife meaning a nice spot to grab a drink and hang out, not looking for the college experience again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
peekskill68 Posted December 14, 2015 Share Posted December 14, 2015 I'm going although I paid up pre-Romo injuries. Should have waited... Always wanted to see a game in Jerry's World, too... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, you're right it's not close to the stadium but you really don't need to be all that close. The highways won't be busy on Saturday night except maybe game traffic right by the stadium. If you're in Market Center your easiest place to find some nightlife would be McKinney Ave. in uptown. Not terribly upscale but not college dive bars either. Mostly bars but there are some clubs/lounges down there too. If you want something a little nicer then one of the hotel bars like Ghostbar (near the American Airlines Center) or the bar in Hotel Zaza might be more to your liking. If you have women among your crowd you can get into one of the higher end clubs on Main Street in Dallas but honestly I've never found them to be worth the douchiness trying to get in.

AFJF Posted December 16, 2015 Author Share Posted December 16, 2015 Really wanted to do this but decided to stay local in case they make the playoffs. If they do, that'll be the road trip I'll take. Should be a convincing Jets win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FloridaJetsFan Posted December 16, 2015 Share Posted December 16, 2015 Wanted to make this my "road game" this year, but ticket prices were ludicrous up until late October, so I bagged on it. Kinda pissed now that I hear prices are lower ... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
