Is there a reasonable Denton TX bar district or is it off to Dallas?
Very nice bar district in Denton although it's geared more towards music than sports. Check out Dan's Silverleaf, The Boiler Room, Andy's Basement. Although UNT is not known for it's football, it's music program is top notch and bleeds over into the community. Midlake got it's start here.
