Ah cool! Yeah I've got a ticket for Saturday so can meet you in there? Would save having to get a guest pass conversion. We can discuss it in more detail on Friday anyway!

Yeah I am finally getting used to the heat.. today was the first time I've actually seen a black cloud whilst I've been here. In England, you'd do well to go an hour without seeing one....

EnglishAggie ... really enjoyed reading your blog. Keep up the great work!

EnglishAggie...welcome

Kind of late to the game, but I agree The Corner and Sully's are probably the two best options to watch soccer. The owners/workers at Sully's are great at changing stations to accommodate fans/requests

Wanted to commend you on your blog as well. It was a good read and I look forward to seeing updates. Thanks for sharing.

I cannot make it to the watch party Friday for CR, but should be able to make the Mexico match.

Enjoy your stay in Aggieland!

Ah thank you EclipseAg and mpezll for the nice comments RE: the blog. Really appreciate that. Might share it on the main football forum later.

Yeah I've found Sully's to be my favorite so far - plus it's the closest to where I'm staying which is handy. I did check out buffalo wild wings yesterday which has more screens than I could believe!

I'm hunting down a Bama ticket today.. so if anyone know's anyone who knows anyone that has one, give me a shout! Otherwise I'll have to resort to paying stubhub's crazy service fees (and yeah I know the Bama tickets are going for big money, but I've come all this way, I aint gonna miss it!).

mpezll - See you at the Mexico match!

Post on the ticket exchange forum... you'll have better luck finding a ticket through there

Done

What time are people heading to The Corner tomorrow? I'm going to try and sniff out a place showing the England-Moldova game earlier on. I think it's a 2pm KO so plenty of time before the USA game.

The Corner will probably also show the England game (they generally show one or two games - on 2 tvs - that have the biggest following at the time). So usually USA, Mexico, Argentina, England, and Brazil WCQs are shown there.

I will probably show up 30 mins before kick off. So 8:30... Just to make sure the watching situation is all good to go.

Ah okay, cool. See you there

EnglishAggie,

Were you at Duddley's last weekend?

English Aggie,

would be happy to meet you for some beers and the England game

Smith&Co1970 - I don't think so, Duddley's doesn't ring a bell.

Ragnar Danneskjold - Cool man, where do you fancy watching it?

Good deal. Ran into a English guy last weekend for the Rice game and he took a nice liking to my handlebar.

Haha, certainly wasn't me!

Corner would be our best bet I reckon.

My only problem with heading over to The Corner is that we're going there for the USA game in the evening and I'd have to walk all the way back to where I'm staying (EZ Travel Inn) in between which is a hell of a lot of walking (especially in this heat!). How about Sully's? It's halfway between either and will definitely be showing it I think. Sorry for being a pain

Sounds good to me. I will be wearing a Dempsey USA jersey. What time is the Limey game?

Sweet! 2pm. See you there

EnglishAggie, if I'm remembering my College Station hotels and motels correctly, there is a bus stop pretty close to your hotel.

Learn to love it.



(And don't worry about not being a student or employee unless they've started enforcing that within the last month or so. If they have, then nevermind. Learn to love walking.)

Good point.

First is regular bus route. Second is gameday.

You should definitely give those a shot to help you get around

I wish I still lived in College Station to find out Ragnar's true identity

English Aggie

i have had something come up and I cant make it today.

If anyone has a phone number for him could you text him and let him know

No worries mate. Hopefully see you later at The Corner?

Moldova sucks. One of the few European countries I can't id on a map

England beat Moldova 4-0. Now for USA to make it the perfect day.

USA USA USA.

Looks like englishaggie is getting a lot of well deserved attention. The blog is great by the way. It's ineresting to see a brit's perspective

Thank you Alan, appreciate it!

I'll never leave my soccer crew behind though
