Seriously thinking about running up to catch the stros game on Tuesday. Been over a decade since I've been to coors. What's the best play for tickets and parking? Just go through the Rockies website? Also now that falling rock is gone (RIP), what's the best place to go and grab a beer in the off chance that I'm able to make it up there early in time to **** off a bit before the game?

Check out McGregor Square adjacent to Coors. It's pretty sweet.

mondays game was a fun game to be at. Got the $8 seats down by the home run pole on first base line; ended up behind the dugout since it was so empty. An 8 run inning (6 on 2 outs) is such a fun rush in person.
My kids ended up on the big screen too which is always fun. Their second time in all of 6-8 games.

Wife and I are moving and have 2 tickets to Ed Sheeran for 4th of July at Empower if anyone is interested?

$180/ticket - Sec 114, Row 38, Seat 25 - 26

Hot damn

Not to mention Leo Messi in town scoring twice.

What's this now??

Uh oh...was about to come post this, as well as eat some crow for being wrong!

Bucees CEO:

Avs sweep LA

Cathy called me and said you called her. Im so glad. You wont regret it.

Yeah we'll have to work out logistics since she's in centennial, but she sounds like a seasoned veteran.

she travels EVERYWHERE! I just bought a house in Thornton and she was with mr every step of the way. The woman goes where she needs to be.

And Post Oak BBQ expanding to DU area. Great news.

I've had Post Oak a handful of times, maybe it's gotten better but I'd put it no better than GQue.

My local rankings would be:
Pit Fiend
Barbosas BBQ
????


I've been meaning to try Riot.

If you make it down to the springs check out Chuckwagon. Couple from Cypress opened it up a few years ago out of a truck and now have a brick and mortar spot. I'd personally put it at/near the top in the state in line with what I had from Pit Fiend. Just saw they're planning another expansion to add a bar, live music spot, and additional indoor seating. Have really enjoyed watching them grow and the success they've enjoyed. Rarely, brisket can be inconsistent but still damn good.

Not a fan of G Que the several times I've been. The Post Oak I've had was on point.

Barbosas is great - and always love supporting an Aggie. Haven't tried Pit Fiend.

Riot is a go-to and delicious.

I've been to post oak a few dozen times and I'd say it's always really good and on point. I've about had everything they offer.

Riot have any affiliation with AJ's beyond being in their old building?

I believe it was one of the employees the now-convicted former owner screwed over. So the only connection is a good one.

Per the Google machine:

Ownership & Team: The new venture is led by Patrick Klaiber, who was the pitmaster at AJ's, along with Manny Barella (a Top Chef alum) and partner Caleb Benton.Background: AJ's Pit Bar-B-Q closed in February 2025 after staff walked out due to pay issues, after which the state seized the location for unpaid taxes.Rehiring: Klaiber bought much of the former AJ's equipment at auction and rehired several former staff members.

So we just walked a house with her today in Monument. My wife was very skeptical going into it because of her not being local, but after walking the house we are both very comfortable with her. Thank you for the recommendation.

As soon as you gave her your area of interest she reached out to contacts she has and is getting recommendations and info as needed. The woman does her homework.

I just really enjoy her as a person. Ive used her three times. I hope you enjoy her as much as well but no hard feelings if you and your wife use someone else. At the end of the day, it's a new home, and your happiness is most important.

Had Pit Fiend today and the brisket was great. Definitely among the best in town.

Have you tried Riot BBQ? They've been the best I've found so far. Will have to check out Fiend next

Pit Fiend (Owlbear before the owner died) is the best IMO. Post Oak is a real close second for me.

This thread has inspired me. I have the day to **** off tomorrow, thinking about running up to pit fiend and then hit up a few breweries in town.
