Let's do a San Antonio (and environs) Dopefest!

Hi all you San Antonio (and environs) Dopers! My rich uncle has me visiting your city until the 19th of February, and I’d love to meet some of you.

I’m off the weekend of the 1st of Feb, anyone interested?

C’mon, I know there must be some San Antonian (and environs) dopers out there. Anybody? Bueller?

I’ll bump your thread, and consider it. I’m in Houston, which is sort of a suburb of San Antone (~200 miles).

Aww. If only you were staying for a few more months, heh. I’ll quite possibly be moving to Austin in March.

My new employer is located in San Antone – even though I work and live in Tallahassee. I will be in S.A. the 30th and 31st of January – if a Dopefest materializes.

Figures. We spend New Year’s in SA and you show up after we leave.

Sheesh. :wink:

By my calendar, January 30th and 31st are the same weekend as February 1st. That’s also Superbowl Weekend, which might not be a bad time for a Houstonian to be out of town.

Woo hoo! Okay, how does Saturday evening, the 31st, sound? Unless we get some actual San Antonians to chime in with advice for a venue, I’ll do some asking around and see what I come up with.

Can we get a rodeo involved?? Or at least a ropin?

Ah, one of those kind of Dopefests…

Saturday, January 31st, sounds doable. I don’t know poop about San Antonio, and I’d be doin’ a hotel. Can we get near the Riverwalk?

ahem Austin Dopers are invited.

Well, so are SA Dopers!

ahem

Y’all should go to Dick’s Last Resort on the Riverwalk. That’s good times there. The waiters are rude, and you’re rude back to them. Much fun to be had.

Hmm…,

What do y’all think?

I just had to say that that is one of those things I miss about Tx, hehe. For a city 200m away to be “sort of a suburb.” It’d be like saying I’m in a sort of suburb of Chicago (Kalamazoo, MI).

But it is a day’s drive across the state, so 200m isn’t a big deal.

I got mighty used to long drives going from Austin to Dallas or San An on a fairly regular basis.

PS: Isn’t Houston larger than San An? So SA would be a suburb of Houston? Not sure.

That’s a possiblity. Of course, we would all have to be in ‘witty comeback’ top form.

Yes, Houston is larger, but I believe SA’s in the top ten in the country. The drive’s ~2½ hours.

Hmmm…

::nudges thread with toe of boot::

'S’there any life left in this thing??

Bah, sure wait until AFTER I move out of SA to have another dopefest :frowning:

If you guys want to move it to shreveport (only a short 7 hr drive) I’m game!

There’s some life here. Absent any protests, howzabout Dicks on the riverwalk at 7:30 Saturday the 31st?
