Better get tickets now. Better reserve hotels now. Probably not many available already

That is crazy to have those on the same weekend. I’ve never been to an F1 race in Austin when UT had a home game. You are right, that’s going to be insane.

I thought Dawgs fans would be far enough away to not be affected by aggyisms, I was wrong.

Having said that, yes that will be an epic clusterfrick for anyone attending the game.

It’s the dumbest schedule planning you could ever imagine.

Clusterfrick is a tame description.

We've got the hotel space to handle it. Just be prepared to dish out $500 for Motel 6. I'm not joking

Reserved my room in Temple yesterday. The rates in Austin were absurd.

Staying in Temple? Let me recommend
La Riv Kitchen&Bar. It’s an Italian Steakhouse. It’s excellent.

We went to the F1 race there in 2019 and had a blast. Trying to do both the game and the race in one weekend would test both your endurance and your wallet. Nothing associated with F1 is cheap, that I can assure you.

I just hope it is not a noon (11 AM) game. For some really stupid reason, y'all seem to get a lot of those. Maybe that will change now.

Since you’re north of town (and if you want to avoid the downtown Austin F1 insanity that weekend), the square in Georgetown is a cool stop.

Just one helluva weekend. You got the game Saturday and the F1 race Sunday. Enjoy life to its fullest!

Seems like suboptimal planning by Formula 1 and Austin on this one.
