I don't know if I'll buy anything at the moment, but I plan to stop by soon. I miss the card shops that were around town when I was a kid (Grand Slam and Extra Innings)

Ok, I updated the front page, but I sure there is stuff that I forgot. If you want me to add or change anything, please let me know.

So glad to hear that there is a new shop in town. While in college I worked at Triple Crown Sports (CS) and Extra Innings (Bryan). It was a fun experience.

I went to Five Guys for lunch. They forgot the bacon on one of four orders. That's typical for College Station service. Food was delicious and staff prepared.

Interior is one-third the size of usual Five Guys. I think this will end up being a place to get your food to go.

My wife (class of 91) owns Kid to Kid in Bryan at Boonville and Hwy 6 (next to Kroger). She sure could use some foot traffic. Appreciate if my fellow TexAger's could help get the word out!


Stopped in on Saturday and walked out with a couple of bags. I was pleasantly surprised by the prices and the store was well organized and clean. We'll be back!

Tiny Town Studios is building a mini golf course, called Kraken's Revenge.

The location is listed as 504 South Earl Rudder.

No plans yet, but similar courses can be seen here: https://tinytownstudios.com/businesses/

That location looks really small for a mini golf spot.

Need a half acre minimum for a mini golf worth building and most are closer to a full acre or more.

If I bring in a box of late 90s cards (nothing special), would you give me some cash for them?

anyone else beside me remember when there was a putt-putt golf course around where the now closed Applebees is located?

Maybe across the street from A&W?

trouble,
that was the latter one.
Buddy of mine bought that Putt-Putt & actually offered it to me back n the late 90's when he tried to dump it.
He ended up selling that piece of property closest to Texas Ave to Dominoes & rented out the land behind it to a bicycle shop.

I do. When I was kid, my brothers and I used to come here every summer to spend a week with our Grandparents , and we would go play putt putt golf and then go across the street to A&W for hamburgers. Me and you must be the oldest guys here.

Ground breaking going on in the old Kroger parking lot (new Popeyes, TruFit, etc.).

Anyone know what is happening there? I thought it was discussed but couldnt find a reference to it.

30 minute lines are inconvenient no matter what part of town.

I don't particularly like Starbucks, but I'll go there until Dutch Bros does online ordering.
