I'm seriously considering making the trip to Austin.

I really hope you do, man. Let me know as your plans get solidified. Any idea where your seats will be yet? If the seats are good at all, please get an extra ticket or two. I assume you'll only be here a couple nights; I could probably convince the wifey to let you crash in our guest bedroom. Are you bringing your wife? I have questions and demand answers, haha.

I still fully intend to make my first road trip be the @ WVU game in 2013... And you'd better protect me. HAHA... You won't have to worry about your safety here. We're way too nice to visitors, you and your team will feel right at home

As expected, but nice to see him get some recognition none the less.

Colorado on the other hand...well, the city of Boulder could catch fire and be nothing more than ash tomorrow morning and I'd be OK with it.

Austin should expect a helluva WV turnout. It's a huge talking point that I hear tons of fans saying they're wanting to make that game.

Tickets aren't available yet, so no clue at this point. Single home game tickets aren't even available yet, they're still processing season tickets, apparently. Yeah, would be the wife and I, and only for the weekend (if we can go, depends on how cost prohibitive a flight from here to Austin is). The university has a package deal, but it's outrageous. Like $1,700 a person, but it is a private chartered flight.

Checking flights now. Most departures(back to home) are from Fort Hood/Killeen. How far away is that?

Ah, yeah, our guest room may be a little small for you two with just a queen

Wha??? There's no flights from ABIA? It's a 90 minute drive to the Fort Hood/Killeen airport (I've never been there). You might as well drive to Waco... Heh, too bad you guys don't play @ Baylor the week after you play @ Texas

**HilbillyHomeboy** · 07-18-2012, 06:31 PM

Haha, queen is what we have in our own personal bedroom.

I've found a better deal. In and out of ABIA, 2 nights at a hotel that looks to be very close to Darrell K, for $1,000. We'd arrive at 1:45pm at ABIA on Friday the 5th, and leave Sunday the 7th at 10:00am. That seems like a pretty good deal to me. I don't know how much tickets will be through WVU, but I'm guessing they'll be affordable.

You two...

**AdamVR4** · 07-18-2012, 07:34 PM

HAHHAHAHAHA, thanks for that.

$1000+tickets for a road game? Not too shabby. See ya then!

I never understood preseason player of the year awards. How can you be player of the year for a season you haven't even played yet? I understand preseason MVP, but let's call it what it is.
