No car show next week so we'll have to mentally and verbally abuse a different pub...

Stags head is always good. Are there any pubs close to beltway and ten on the west side? Far drive for David though.

Actually, if we go to Stag's Head I can take the bus right from my office down Richmond and be there at 6:30 or 7, then sneak a ride home from someone.

As for downtown there's Lucky's (street parking), Flying Saucer (no parking...)...and not much else.

Time? I can be there in about twenty minutes, but I would rather get there around 6:15ish.

I know some of you old farts have bed times though.

Edit: There is a stro's game so it should be a little bit busier then usual. People like to party at Lucky's before the game.

There was some mention of kart racing but the only decent rental track I can find in Houston is Track 21 and it's on Hwy 6 north of I-10 so pretty far away for some of us.

I can make it to Lucky's.

Astros play at 7pm tomorrow, but since it's a Wednesday game there will be about 45 people in attendance.

Lucky's will have most of the crowd. they opened a Little Woodrow's across the street as well.

I can make it out there on my very own, I'll see if I need a ride home or if Sue will come get me like the loving girlfriend she is...
