Give me low down My Texas brothers

For what it's worth, I'd most definitely take in the Allen game if you're that close.

I'd love to catch a game out yonder. Unfortunately, football season means my work schedule becomes more demanding and doesn't allow much time for travel. It's a shame really, but watching football doesn't pay my mortgage. Lol

I been to 2 Allen home games in my life. Both blowouts obviously. Lol. 

I was stunned to realize there is nowhere to sit in the stadium. Every seat damn near is reserved. They need more seats 😅

2015 vs Guyer win 48-16

2012 vs Plano West win 47-25

 

two other Texas high school football games I been to was 2015 St Bernard's,CA at Brook Hill (TAPPS) 

2017 Brazoswood at Pearland (the Rig!)

Well when you've got 6000 students and 1,000 band members and at least 2 family members in attendance for the band, cheerleaders, and players then 18,000 seats go quickly. Lol

Dude that Lake drowns more Texans than any Lake I know.  Lake Lewisville is dangerous for some reason.  Enjoy yur stay sir.  Even those programs are not at the top here.  You should just take it in and enjoy some Texas Football.  Enjoy the BBQ for sure.  Best BBQ is CATTLEACK BBQ little expensive long ass lines but worth it for sure.  Ranked #3 in all of Texas and if you are in McKinney,  My Town try Hutchins it is also among the top in Texas. 

Cattleack Barbeque

Opened: 2013 
Pitmaster: Todd David, 59
Method: Post oak and hickory; indirect-heat pit and wood-fired rotisserie
Pro tip: For the best twenty seconds of ’cue porn in Texas, go to Cattleack’s website (sorry, it’s not on mobile).

Every ounce of your being recoils at the idea of eating barbecue in an industrial-area strip center in north Dallas. It’s just wrong! How could it have any soul! Calm down. Walk to the end of the line and start inching along (it’s like going through airport security). Pass the time identifying famous Texas pitmasters from their mug shots on the wall, and have your order well in mind when you get to the counter, because the meat cutters work at supersonic speed. Tote your tray to a varnished picnic table, amid all the cute signs and tchotchkes, and take your first bite. Prepare to feel the earth move, because, yes, it’s that good. Cattleack is the project of Todd David and his wife, Misty, who’ve given it all their love and then some. Their Akaushi ribs give new meaning to “well marbled,” while incredibly moist brisket is cradled by bark that melds into the meat. Elemental pulled pork separates into succulent strands at the touch of a fork. The pork ribs, hefty and high quality, beat the sausage, which is nice and coarse but awfully salty. Don’t pass up specials like house-made boudin or lamb-and-fig sausage. Rating: 4.75. 13628 Gamma Rd, 972-805-0999. Thur & Fri and first Sat of month 10:30–2.

Hutchins BBQ

Opened: 1978 (current location since 1991)
Pitmaster: Tim Hutchins, 36
Method: Oak (brisket only) and pecan; indirect-heat pits
Pro tip: “Texas twinkies”—brisket-stuffed jalapeños wrapped in bacon—are sold on weekends.

Four decades ago, when Tim Hutchins’s father first started serving food in far north Texas, catfish was king and his smoked meats were almost an afterthought. But along the way, the barbecue evolution happened, and now it’s tough to find a hotter ’cue operation anywhere north of Dallas. Wood-paneled walls and black and white photographs give the place an old-school country steakhouse vibe. Hutchins gets about a thousand hormone-free briskets a week almost entirely from Aspen Ridge, out of Greeley, Colorado. Cooked over oak and finished with pecan, they are cut to order on a butcher block at the front of the store, yielding black-crusted pink slices that are as spectacular to look at as to eat. Rating: 4.5. 1301 N. Tennessee, 972-548-2629. Sun–Thur 11–9, Fri & Sat 11–9:30. 

Thank you sir for the recommendation on BBQ.Saw the Marcus HS stadium today and just laughed.Even the lowly Texas teams have stadiums that a California JC would be more than happy to play in.My people told me they shut down the street to tailgate lol gotta respect that passion.Im looking forward to the experience

You will enjoy it.  I went out to Melissa just up the 75 from Me in McKinney last Friday.  I wanted to see a Top TAPPS vs. a Top 4A Team.  That is one of the most picturesque Stadiums around.  I have passed by on a few occasions and saw it from the street but never went to the Stadium.  It literally sets in a Sub-division surrounded by beautiful homes.  People can literally walk out their front door and see and walk to the Stadium.  I have never seen that anywhere in Texas.

Flower Mound is a wealthy area with "budget" stadiums.
