AgInIrving is moving to the Triangle Area. I've found the FB group for Ags there, but are there any Texagsers in the area?

yep.

When are you moving?

Moving this week. Probably will get to Durham on Saturday.

If I get the apartment I want - it has a nice big screen TV room that can be reserved by residents. I'd like to invite some Ags to watch the A&M/Arkansas game there if its available. Let me know if y'all might be interested. It would be pretty close to the Tobacco District.

Sign up for the list-serve through the association and it'll keep you apprised of area events.

We have a Fall BBQ coming up on Oct 17.

There's usually a (small) gathering of Ags for football games...again, the list-serve serves as our communication center. Typically go to one of the area Carolina Ale House's.

Don't let surf harass you too much in durham.

best hangouts in durham are in brightleaf square which is right there by your place. several little bars right there (devine's, alive's?, the federale and satisfactions. all are duke bars as they're a block from the east campus. good food there at the square too. i usually head out there when i go out.

word of advice: durham has some pretty bad areas especially around northgate mall that you will want to avoid when possible. parts of guess rd aren't too good either south of I-85 and fayetteville st is bad between durham freeway and I-40

oh and the bbq here sucks ass. it's a mouth full of vinegar. cheese dogs are a block of cheese in a bun. you have to order a combo dog to get cheese and a dog. they're a little strange with some of the foods here

Thanks for the info!

I'm set up on list serve...and also joined the facebook group. Hoping to make the BBQ.

We'll probably get together at the Raleigh ale house for the arky game, unless the wife has a change of heart and decides she wants to go to the bull city.

Sounds good. Looking forward to it.

I'll be at the Ale House on Saturday. Will y'all be wearing Texags Username Tags?

I'll be there.

I emailed Stephanie about it yesterday.

BTHOpiggies!

definitely not wearing texags names there. too much embarrassment...but i'll tell you everyone's if you ask . NA will not be there. Surf is a graphics dork.

See you NC Ags in a bit! I'll be wearing a #45 Thomas Sanders jersey. Please don't throw anything at me if we've previously sparred on the politics board.

Good to meet you all! Look forward to doing it again next weekend, but with better results on the field.

ya...that game itself was a big disappointment after the first 10 minutes.

I made it back alive, no worries!

It was great meeting all of you, and I'll see you next week.

It was great to meet all of you guys! I'll be in Texas the next couple weekends (let me know if there's anything you need that can be brought back on a plane( I'll be in CStat and SA) and should be back in NC for the tech game. I definitely look forward to seeing yall again!

You weren't kidding about how little you post, mnpeterson. You're up to 4 now.

Have safe travels!

Thanks for calling me out on my big fat 4 posts.
That makes 5. What now!?

I think you're ok. You know the saying: "Better to remain silent and be thought a fool than to speak out and remove all doubt."

I've removed all doubt more than 2,000 times on Texags so far.

sucka!

i've done it over 28,000 times

I start work on Monday. I was going stir crazy this week staying at home, so I did some touristy things... Bennett Place, Stagville, State Capitol, and the NC Museum of History. Any recommendations for my last weekday of non-workdom?

See you guys on Saturday.

AgTown - you coming into Durham this weekend?

AFiI, you're the only person who said they're going to show up...

I think Steph is going to cancel, or at least we may not come. We have another event the complete opposite direction to attend at 3ish.

There aren't a whole lot of touristy things right here in the triangle. There's a train in Bonsai (south on US-1) if you're into that sort of thing.

Lots of parks...

Did you go to the Duke Homestead yet?

Despite the cancellation of the official Triangle game watching party, let me know if there ends up being an unofficial get-together. None of the Duke people in my apartment would know good football if it bit them in the butt. Then again, perhaps they don't have to know good football to know Aggie football...but we'll save that for another day.

YellAgs, I won't RSVP first next time. Guess I scared everyone off.

Thanks for the tip on the train. I'll give it a try some time.

Sorry buddy. The club is very up and down as far as attendance goes. Last week was the most or second most people i've seen attend for game-watching.

It may just be the fact that there are alot of people with families and going to a bar just isn't going to work for them when the game is on TV. I don't know.

It was fun, and we'll try again in a few weeks. The BBQ is next week on Saturday, so there will be a much bigger turnout of people. The KSU game that day is at 7:30 PM.

which of you chodes was pimpin the Ag shirt in university mall in chapel hill yesterday?
