I live in Kansas, so it's a bit easier of a trek, but I've taken my son to each of the last 2 games vs UF and vs CCU.
It's as memorable of 2 days as we have together. Hope there's many more. I like the every other year trend.

re: Texas fanbase weak at CWS

It’s far from a cheap trip. There’s 4 good and proud schools left. I’m sure you’ll see a good showing from whoever is represented this weekend.
Are you not setup as an LLC taxed as an S-Corp and paying yourself a W2?
I allocate the majority of my W2 reasonable salary to cover taxes and still add a buffer when I take distributions out to cover monthly expenses and investments. All in, I plan about 30% to never be mine. I wish I had gone the S-Corp route 2 years earlier. I was bent over a barrel on self employment taxes by not doing so.
That said, my accountant was both pleasantly surprised and thrilled when he told me how much I owed at tax time and I told him great, I'll cut those checks today. Had always been putting 30% in a savings to cover that #.

I was gifted a parking pass for a game last year. Wow, absolute game changer. Worth every penny. I'll be buying one for the games I go to this year.

Great replies in here. Much appreciated guys. I think our best bet is to rent this year and get some reps in.

I'm aware these are all very different ways of traveling, but what say the Travel Board?
I work remotely. Every year about this time when the weather gets nice, I have the urge to drop coin on a Class C or 5th wheel and travel across the US. Sounds like a much better idea in my head than reality. Especially with young kids and all their activities.
For those of you who travel this way, what is your rig? Any pictures?
When did you get into this? Pros/Cons?
I'd love to hear more about this from those who do it.

I won't believe in a recession until I drive by a Texas Roadhouse after 5pm and that fricker isn't packed out the front door.
Or the guys is super average and every NFL GM is a lot smarter then the Nuss sunshine pumpers.
He’s about to be a very rich man via the Chase Daniels patch. Make a lot of money to be a serviceable backup.

re: Garrett Nussmeier: Gallant Effort by his PR Team since January; Still a Day 3 Draft Pick
Posted by LSUShock on 4/24/26 at 11:58 pm to UncleLester
Tape doesn’t lie. Especially tape against anyone worth a damn. I’ve been saying for years on here Nuss is an average QB that could never be and never was what LSU fans wanted him to be. That’s OK, but the defenders always come out in full force to tell you how great he is.
Except Baker doesn't have cinder blocks for legs.
Nuss will be a serviceable backup who will make a ton of money in the NFL and live a great life. He will not be a savior for any team that drafts him. Great kid. Loves LSU. Average at best college QB, let alone NFL.

The Indian Mounds being fenced is such a travesty.
I'm old now, but I remember as a kid, just being amazed by the sheer size of Tiger Stadium walking around campus before a Saturday gameday. Everything just felt so big and out of this world when on campus and the stadium was the centerpiece.

Damn, you are not wrong. Just looking at this year, it's $400-700 cheaper depending on the airline. Great callout.
Hawaii Advice - Family Trip (11, 9, 2). Thanksgiving 2027
Posted by LSUShock on 3/31/26 at 3:59 pm
Yes, a bit pre-mature, but I wanted to get some feelers. I've always been anti-Hawaii because I would rather spend the same or less money and go to Costa Rica, Mexico, Europe, etc.
We do a family trip every third Thanksgiving. Wife and I + the kids. Kids will be ages 11, 9, and 2. We've gotten into a good routine with the older ones, so the baby will be a wild card.
Goal will of course be beach, pools with activities for kids, and some day trip excursions for the kids as well.
We will probably do Saturday-Saturday including Thanskgiving Day. I have had the 1 Hotel Hanalei Bay bookmarked for years and would love to do that, but not sure it makes sense with the kids.
I've got about 750,000 Hilton points bank rolled as well.
Any Hawaii aficionados here?
