Basil Jackson was an Aggie linebacker in the mid- to late-80s. He and I both work for the same high-tech company in Austin. I recently found out that Basil and his wife have opened a dessert shop called Pie Bar. Some relatives and I checked it out July 4th weekend, buying 5 of the 4" mini pies, and sharing them. Good stuff. Pie Bar is near the end of South Congress, just north of Slaughter, across the street from the new HEB. Check it out!

Yes he did! If I recall correctly, he made the initial contact on 4th and goal.

Such a humble guy. I don't know him well, but I say hello to him in the hall at work. One day I mentioned that 4th down play to him, and he seemed appreciative that I noticed.

Sounds nice but that might as well be north San Antonio for most of us...cannot recall the last time I went south of the river.

Wishing them the best.

The title says South Austin, not Leander.

Just in case any of our "newcomers" were wondering about how long the North / South debate has transpired.

I especially liked the "knit tie yuppies" on the North team. Once upon a time, we all knew how to laugh at ourselves.

Lol Knit ties. I remember buying one in Jr high or high school back then, only to get it home and realize ~ I can't pull this off, I'm not a knit tie guy.
