@ $nave: our offer was really just in the wrong location. Had it been Italy or Greece we would’ve been there in a heartbeat…

ticktock, I’m still interested in trying the local flavour. We’ve got Shiner here, and everybody loves it for the same exact reason you stated. I haven’t attended any sporting events outside of Dallas, but I’d be appalled if it weren’t served here in the Austin area.

The whole Bud Light crap is all about the Benjamins, so it’s good to see (potentially) the little people win one. I, for one, am now on the search for local stores that carry Abita (by the way, I loved the fervent love shown for Abita by ‘hype throughout this season. That’s dedication).

I’ve heard that the Backrow was offered a contract in Europe and that it was seriously considered due to the Euro/Dollar exchange rate. Care to comment?

Mark– It’s good, but I think the point is for us that it’s ridiculous not to offer THE local beer at New Orleans arena. At the end of the year at the stand near our section there was, like, Bud/Miller Lite and we didn’t even bother buying beer anymore. Because it was stuff we’d drink for free or for 2 bucks, but it just wasn’t right to pay more for it when we used to get beers with actual flavor for the same price.

I’m gonna go find me a pack sometime to see what all this fuss is about. Austin had better stock some up when season rolls around.

Hey I’m waiting to hear back about a job with the LAPD but once I get it I’m getting my 05 monte carlo customized…….Hornets style so if you want when I do it I’ll send some pics, I’m getting a bad ass looking Hornet on the hood and the fleur de bee on the doors, it’s seriously gonna be awesome. Also if you have any other ideas to add to it let me know.(I’m not putting players names on it cause……well they might be traded then my car will be out of date)
