GreenFish Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 High school football in Texas is a must. We go every year to watch our local hs. The band is the best part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope to do the triple tailgate: Friday Night: High School Football at one of those million dollar stadiums Saturday: College football tailgate Sunday: Jets \ Cowboys C'mon NFL give us Monday night football somewhere on the way back and we will go 4 for 4! I will meet you there Phil. Easy drive up from Houston and I know a few BBQ and Tex-Mex places that will make you want to make Texas permenant. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We pretty much plan on making that trip to get with him etc. Definitely should have an away Jetnation tailgate. There will most likely be 5-8 of us. All seriousness, I can kick in say $100 or more for the tailgate if you're gonna bring the van. I’m in. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to do Friday night lights as part of this trip. What would you recommend for high school? Also, I know it depends on how the schedule lines up, but what college game would you recommend for Saturday? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, I know it depends on how the schedule lines up, but what college game would you recommend for Saturday? I live in Central Texas. So cant really say too much about the DFW area. I would just say it depends on what you are looking for: stadium, team, and/or band. CTX has a lot of great bands but the stadiums are not as nice as some schools in say DFW or Houston. Someone mentioned Allen HS. They have probably the most expensive stadium. Ive never been there but the pictures look nice. They also have a really good team.

GreenFish Posted January 31 Share Posted January 31 Sounds exciting. Depending on how things land, I may go. I’ve only watched a Jets regular season game in person once. Mark Sanchez threw the ball farther than I’ve ever seem. Can’t imagine what it’s like to see Josh Allen launch it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Marriott price range Either downtown Fort Worth or West 7th in Fort Worth would give you hotels in that price range pretty close to restaurants and bars. In Dallas it's usually higher end hotels walking distance to the popular food/drink areas. If you want to stay in Dallas I'd just look for a hotel that is convenient to anywhere you want to go and suffer a short ride over. Big areas in Dallas for food/drink will be McKinney/Uptown (street not the city), Knox/Henderson, Victory Park, Deep Ellum, Bishop Arts. There are some others but those are good bets. McKinney/Uptown has a lot of options and I believe there is a Marriott pretty close. Those areas are all 10-15 minutes away from each other by car. If you want to stay in Arlington where the stadium is, there are plenty of hotel options but outside of college bars right around the university it's suburbia. There are a lot of chain restaurants in the area around the stadium. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Southlake Carroll is a great team to watch, Allen usually has a badass team but was down this past year. Stadium holds close to 25K and they fill it up on the regular. All the Frisco schools (10 high schools) play at The Star - Cowboys indoor practice facility (20K easily) and also Toyota Field which is the major league soccer field, holds 30K.

RJIII Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 These are the 3 stadiums in the DFW area I was referring to. Each of these are well over $70M with Prosper hitting $100M. Truly incredible high school stadiums in Texas. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
y2k8 Posted February 1 Share Posted February 1 On 1/30/2023 at 1:03 AM, August said: If we get Aaron I can see it being on Thanksgiving Yeah, the schedule at this point is drafted in pencil. Prime Time games for the Jets will either be the mandatory 1 TNF - or up to 5 or so if the trade for A-aron. We don't want to see Zach Wilson, imagine how the rest of the country feels. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
