  1. Just like you mentioned... they asked if I was interested in seat relocation and just said they are waiting until they know more about capacity limits before offering this later in the summer.
  2. Manor is an absolute whip anyway... I've parked there a few times and unless you can just leave your car there or continue to tailgate for a few more hours post game you basically just sit in line trying to get out forever. But agreed on the tailgating scene, everything is under construction and all those lots of the past are gone. Saving grace for me has been hanging around the fountain and the LCL pre game if not the Alum center.
  3. Although Manor was showing 70 spots available yesterday I don't think you could actually select them as they were being saved... maybe for those that have accessibility needs? I used to get Yellow all the time as well but stopped in the last few years and instead just Uber back and forth. My confidence is low that the season will happen so even buying parking in a shitty garage to sell later seems like a fruitless effort. This is going to be such a beat down. Edit: A quick check on StubHub and people are asking $367 for Purple $400 for East Garage and $1500 for Navy.
  4. I've seen several clubs put tee times up on GolfNow as a recruiting tool and generate broader awareness when they do not have a full golfing membership. Once that does fill up I think that stops or is at least limited to just a few slots in the weekdays. Barton Creek does this by way of resort patrons except you also get to pay $80K for that pleasure.
  5. Waiters, Grocery clerks, food delivery folks. There are plenty of people who are at risk whose job would not have been considered “putting their life on the line” Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  6. Other than golf and being able to take into a variety of courses what else are you looking for? Active MGA? Tournaments? Family friendly activities? Dinners/Date night events. How old are you/kids and are you hoping to find people in those similar age ranges to hang with at the club?
  7. Lost Creek is $5K to join and $515 a month for Full Golf. If you are <40 then you can join for $2500 and dues are a bit less. If you want the ability to play other Club Corp courses it probably another $85 a month on top. RiverPlace, Onion Creek and Twin Creeks are all part of Arcis therefore you have a similar network of courses you can play beyond your home one. Arcis was going to put some money into these courses and the dues have gone up a little but I think they still might be around $5k to join RP. Twin Creeks might be a bit more as I've heard they have a very active golfing membership. Carts run a dollar a hole or you can buy a yearly pass upfront. No min on food/bev purchases. Other than Barton Creek the options above would give you the most access to other courses in the area.
  8. Paying extra for parking is new though correct? I thought i just got to select parking passes as part of the renewal Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

  10. No doubt this is a big time cost savings for them. I like the idea of mobile tickets as an option but I still want the flexibility of paper ones for many of the reasons mentioned above (lack of service at game time leading to issue transferring tickets) Just as frustrating for me is getting an email with a link to download season tickets? Might as well just buy them off StubHub at this point.
  11. Was it pretty simple to just switch the wires from the old unit to this one?
  12. I didn't pick one up since the 4th this year will be just us and a whole packer is too much to eat... but I'm regretting that decision now since I passed on a Memorial Day brisket and opted for a pork butt. Perhaps I'll go back and grab one.
  13. Fyi, went by HEB off 7th yesterday and they had Prime 1 briskets on sale for about $4.5 / lb... which is about the same price as the choice they had on the other shelf?!?
  14. From the article posted above so I think over the weekend. Honestly! At least the ones under I35 and 7th are placed neatly in a row.
  15. That's what I'm hoping for as well... They have an alternate date in August for COVID reasons but have yet to say they are going to postpone. I'm trying to avoid any family drama over skipping if they do have it in July.
  16. My nephew has a wedding scheduled at the end of July and at this point I'm skipping. Since it's at a church the restrictions at the state level have no impact on this correct?
  17. I don't think I have any pics but fired up the grill on Friday to chargrill a few dozen oysters I got from Quality. Took the Weber to around 600, shucked them and placed on the grill, added a nice dollop of butter, garlic, chives, etc. Then sprinkled with some shaved Parmesan before taking off to devour. First time turned out well.
  18. I've been looking at ABCmouse.com which is online learning for ages 2-8 (and they also have Adventure Academy for 8-13)... might try it out this summer for my 4 year old and see how it does.
  19. Well this makes me feel a little better about how shitty downtown Austin right now
  20. Wow, just looked up where this is... is this from all the summer beach goers? I rented a house just up the cost from there in early August... was planning on packing in all my food versus going to any restaurants but damn.
