That definitely explains all people wearing rangers gear to minute maid park over the last 6 years. I'm sure those Houston folks will be reverting back to astros gear now.

Has it ever occurred to you that the rangers broadcast was just showing rangers fans?!

I was at one of the games and i have some potentially devastating news for you.....

The were almost no rangers fans there...

I'll be there for two weeks and noticed last month that the weekend series is against the Astros. Checked out the ticket page and used your discount code (thanks for that, by the way), and saw that there were tickets everywhere. Totally forgot about it until this week, and now obviously all those tickets are gone. I can't find a pair anywhere below the clouds for the Saturday game. Originally planned for lower box (115-120ish area), but now all I see is upper box. Am I out of luck because I was lazy and stupid, or do you have any suggestions to get something better?

I'll take a look when I'm back in the office on Monday. It's weird that you can't find anything good for that game, but my guess is that it's because we still have pro-rated season ticket plans on sale for the month of June. We will release those on May 22 and that will open up some more individual ticket inventory

For the first time in a decade the astros can finally talk smack and back it up with on the field results.

Be careful about winning too much though. You might pick up too many of those bandwagon type former Ranger fans that y'all loathe so much used to be Astros fans in the early-00's.

Wow, you're right. Houston fans will jump on the bandwagon of who ever is winning at the time.

That definitely explains all people wearing rangers gear to minute maid park over the last 6 years. I'm sure those Houston folks will be reverting back to astros gear now.
I'm just going by the number of "Ranger" fans from DFW that I knew in college wearing Astros gear.


I can't say that I ever saw a significant amount of people wearing astros gear or claiming to be Astros fans in dfw.

I grew up mainly a dfw area sports fan, but I rooted for the Houston teams too. Why would I hate the Astros? They weren't even in the American league.

I only started to get annoyed with Houston area sports once I went down to A&M in the early 2000. Hearing all the Houston people crap all over dfw got old fast. I had no idea of the hatred y'all have for the metroplex and the teams there.

I do miss the Oilers though. Y'all just had to screw that up and lose the team to Tennessee.

That is so weird because every time I watch an Astro broadcast I see Astro fans at the games. I always thought we have the world's best and most traveling fans ever.

Devastated, don't be so dramatic.

There is a difference between panning the crowd in Kansas City and finding a few rangers fans and the amount that was at astros games the past 6 years.

When the Rangers would score a run the crowd noise was pretty loud rooting for the rangers. It makes sense, the astros were bad and the rangers were good over that time.

As far as this last series goes I didn't notice as many rangers fans as past years. Looks like the Houston people have already jumped back on the Astros bandwagon.

There's a pretty good menu selection in that area. You'll have an in-seat waitstaff. There's also some good food options behind home plate on the lower concourse. Also, the Texas Snow Balls are a can't miss. I believe those are located at the Texas state fair concession in right field, but don't quote me on that.

Not sure where the pale ales are, though.

EDIT: You'll have an in-seat waitstaff if you are in the lexus club box (231-235), not the lexus terrace (236 and beyond)

Main concourse has several local and Texas beers stands. There's at least one in center field too.

Lexus Club beer selection is pretty generic.

I believe we are terrace... I think we are section 236.

Thanks for the pointers and the Texas Sno Balls look amazing.

Hey it's not all that bad! What part of Arlington are you moving to? I've lived on the north side for about a year now

On the topic of roadtrips, I'm kinda bummed that all the series in Houston are during the week - no weekends this year. I usually like to drive down for a game or two.

Yeah that **** pissed me off. I've never been to Minute Maid before and want to go. I guess I can go some random weekend even if it's not the Rangers

Nothing but indifference toward their non rival coming from the metroplex:

12-17 - Rangers put Astros in their place, win finale

The Rangers put up crooked numbers in multiple innings to cool off cocky Astros
What not caring looks like

I'm pretty sure "our place" is looking down upon lowly LPTR at our lofty position in first.

I hate it but if it gets us to 20-10 and 5.5 up in the division (7 up on you losers) IDGAF what kind of sounds we make in the stands.

As a matter of fact I'd bet that if I told you our teams would switch records if you starting wooing you'd be doing it right now from your own living room.

Wait, didn't everyone think it was stupid when TCU started the woo bird thing?

Now, Astros fans are thinking it's the coolest thing ever. I'm sorry, but there is no defense for the woo bird crap.

Didn't yal used to think Carlos Gomez was stupid when he'd bat flip on a fly out with the Astros. Not a peep about it in the Rangers thread when he did it as a Ranger last week.
