Don't know a whole lot about Dallas...other than Jerry World is in the middle of rough ridin' nowhere.  Is there some sort of consensus where all the good looking/smelling Qatz will be congregating down there?  We were going to stay at the W, but now we're leaning towards getting a room at the Adolphus so we're closer to McKinney.  Are we on the right track here?  :confused:

K-State HQ is [spoiler]Sundance Square in Ft. Worth[/spoiler]. A number of different hotels there, but rooms are filling up fast.

Arkansas fans are staying at a number of places (http://maps.google.com/maps?q=Dallas+trailer+park&hl=en&sll=37.0625,-95.677068&sspn=41.546728,106.787109&vpsrc=0&hq=trailer+park&hnear=Dallas,+Texas&t=h&z=11).

I booked three rooms at the Adolphus (via Hotwire), it's 20-25 minutes away from the stadium and it's in the middle of the bar scene in Uptown.

Yeah...that was our thought too.  But it's starting to look like most of the action is going to be in downtown Ft. Worth.  Including a free shuttle to and from the stadium.

Yes, that is one of the hog hotels. It was a more affordable option, but you should bring your own sheets.

Hotel in Dallas or Ft. Worth?

The only thing that sucks about this game is that the stadium is in the middle of rough ridin' nowhere and there doesn't seem to be any consensus as to where everything is going to be going on.  There's about a 30 mile radius where everyone is going to be spread out.  :frown:

We're scalping too.  Still not worried.  :blank:

mckinney is not a good idea unless you're staying with family/friends.  million miles away and suburbs.

Yeah...I think I was confused when I said McKinney.  We're basically trying to decide between Sundance Square and the Adolphus downtown.  Sounds like Sundance Square will be the place to be on Friday and downtown Dallas will be the place to be on Saturday.  Don't really want to switch hotels though.  This blows.

What would you recommend for transportation between Dallas/Ft. Worth/Stadium?  Cabs look to be insanely expensive since everything is so spread out.  Heard about a possible free shuttle from Sundance Square to the stadium on Friday but don't have any details.  We're a strong lean towards the Adolphus just because it will be more fun on Saturday after all the EMAWs leave.  Just hoping that the best after-game parties aren't in Ft. Worth because that's an expensive cab ride from Ft. Worth to Dallas.

Invite a friend that doesn't drink :)  Cabs are really expensive, especially for a 30+ mile drive.  Parking/driving are easy here.  Everything is spread out unlike most major cities that are bound by oceans/mountains/rivers/lakes/etc.  Conversely, public transportation blows, and it's worse late at night.  Not sure on shuttles, but wouldn't surprise me.  Sherlocks in arlington had free shuttle to cowboys games if you bought a beer or two there.  Not sure for cotton bowl, though.

Here's what you need to know...

Arlington is not BFE.  Its the middle of a metropolis of 6 million people.

Your best bests are in the following order:

1. Sundance Square

8.0's
Houston Street
Flying Saucer
Pete's Piano
Vice (upscale)
many more

2. West 7th Street (new TCUish bar district)

Pour House
Garage
Martini Lounge
a few others

3. Stockyards

Billy Bobs
Cadalacs
Filthy McNasty
a few others

Stay in Fort Worth.  It's your duty as an EMAW to scout the competition for next season.  Unless u wanna go to the ghost bar in Dallas and spend 49.99 per drank and hang with some Mustang doches.  But honestly, Sundance is where u wanna be.

I think we've settled it.  We're staying at the Adolphus.  It's going to be better on Saturday night when everyone leaves if we can hang out in the elite part of town.  The cabs will be expensive if we pak in Ft. Worth on Friday night after the game, but we're :kstategrad: .  We've also never had a problem finding a random place to crash or scamming free rides.  :gocho:

Hopefully I can run into a random goEMAW'r or 2 and buy them a drink.  :cheers:

Agree pretty much with LE's recommendations.  As far as Dallas vs. FW, just a different kind of scene.  Both are great in their own way.  Sundance is more relaxed and easy to party (I like).  Dallas is more like what you see on tv, if you don't travel much.  I personally like Sundance better, but it's not really the big city experience you're likely to get at Dallas, which you may want on a vacation.

can anyone confirm if the entire state of Oklahoma is under construction as usual?

The construction on I-35 from the Kansas/Oklahoma border to 50 miles south of the border is complete.  It is now the only stretch of highway in Oklahoma that comes close to Kansas quality.  When you cross the border there will be some orange cones that initially make you think "crap, more road construction", but that's just some shoulder work for the first couple of miles that never goes down to 1 lane.

I live in DFW.

The Powercat Gameday place Frankie's in downtown is actually a good sports bar. I watched one of the Mavs finals games there last year. They have tons of room and TVs everywhere. The rest of Sundance Square has a great layout as well, Tons of bars and places to eat within walking distance. ESPN chose it for all its broadcasting last year for the Super Bowl and the Steelers and most of their fanbase stayed over there as well.

Uptown Dallas is awesome, but the parking there sucks. There will be way more K-State fans in Ft. Worth and its an easy 20 minute shot over to Arlington on gameday.

can anyone confirm if the entire state of Oklahoma is under construction as usual?

The construction on I-35 from the Kansas/Oklahoma border to 50 miles south of the border is complete.  It is now the only stretch of highway in Oklahoma that comes close to Kansas quality.  When you cross the border there will be some orange cones that initially make you think "crap, more road construction", but that's just some shoulder work for the first couple of miles that never goes down to 1 lane.
thank you!

Its been probably 8 months since my last trek down to TX.  I was lucky enough to get them in between projects in OK for the most part.

Also staying at Sheraton in downtown Ft. Worth. There's a $10 shuttle to game in easy walking distance, so I guess that's better than paying to park unless you've got 5 or 6 in a car.

K-State's planning has been pretty meh. Aside from the pep ralley on Thursday, all they really seem to give a crap about is selling $1000 "alumni travel packages." Instead of announcing an "official" spot for the rest of us, like Sundance Square, Cat fans are just going word of mouth and are spread all over the DFTW metro. Also should have arranged for a free shuttle to the game from said official spot.

Official roll call time.  Who's going and what are your plans?

Guy's weekend for me.  Meeting a couple buddies from Houston and LA.  :cheers: 

I get in at around noon on Friday and plan on being fairly pak'd by the time my plane lands.  :drink: 

We'll play it by ear on Friday but probably get to the stadium fairly early to crash some tailgates.  :weirdrobert:

Probably start looking for tickets from scalpers about 30 minutes prior to kickoff.  :dunno:

Go wherever the night takes us after the game.  :driving:

We're staying Saturday night too, so we'll sleep in and find some grub in Dallas on Saturday when we roll out of bed and find a place to catch the round-ball Q@s.  :fatty: :drink: :combofan:

Then we'll hit some elite clubs in downtown Dallas on Saturday.  :gocho:

Arrive home on Sunday evening to a wife and screeming kids who will undoubtedly make me pay for the 2 day bender.  :sdeek:

Don't worry, there will be more Arkansas than KSU fans at the game.  You can count on it.

I wouldn't base our turnout on the number of fans you see in Ft. Worth.  Who the fu** wants to stay in Ft. Worth?  Also, Dallas is the second largest Alumni base for the UofA.  Many of our attendees aren't staying in a hotel.
