OU also has the series record against the Pokes in basketball. Not quite as lopsided though. 140-102.

Austin Nostalgia Picture Thread
Wonder if it had to do with the fact that Longhorn Dam wasn't built until 1960.

Hey real estate moguls - what’s going on in the housing market?
Negative. I've been trying to get the Texas Commerce Bank-Barton Creek branch closed down for 30 years. Looks like it's finally happening. :its_happening:

I am a bank lawyer, too. 😁

Exactly. Mine is a shade under 3,000 in West Lake Hills. Kids shared a bathroom. It's now a goldmine.

Austin Restaurants You Miss The Most
Where was Louie's on the Lake? I have a vague memory from 1989-1990 of taking a ferry from Oyster Landing (long before Hula Hut or anything else was there) over to a restaurant where Lake Austin Marina is now. I thought it was Jazz on the Lake.

They were closed for a long time during the pandemic. Glad they reopened. We alternate between it and Bombay Bistro at Brodie Oaks. The classic bone-in chicken curry is really good.

Ran into Mack and Cleve a couple of times at the Pizza Hut on MLK and Lavaca. Always thanked him for coaching up Aikman his one year at OU.

That looks damn good. And that sauce is so thicc. I’m an Okie boy and we believe in sauce (although I raised my boy [UT grad] to be anti sauce). Will have to check it out

Abbott being Abbott
According to the West Lake PD Facebook page nobody has come forward to press charges. Weird post First sentence states it happened and then they go out of their way to say nobody reported it. Maybe it happened at Cedar Creek, Barton Creek or Bridgepoint since those are outside the West Lake City Limits West Lake Hills Police August 18 at 12:28 PM · UPDATE. On August 16th, a parent at a local elementary school physically removed a mask from a teacher during a school event. However, no 911 calls were received from anyone on the scene to report this incident when it happened, possibly due to the teacher not wanting to file charges at the time. We did not receive a call to the location, no report was made, and nobody has followed up with the West Lake Hills Police Department regarding the incident. If the teacher changes their mind and reaches out to us, we will investigate.

Craps for beginners:
Have taken my son (Longhorn 2020 grad) to Vegas twice now. I'll stake him some at the tables but as he's a novice he tends to prefer the "video" crap games that have the big dice in the center of a game console that seats 5 or 6 people. Anyone know the rules on these things? Are they required to payoff a certain amount like slots? He played for a couple of hours with $100, and other than not having the table crowd seemed like a good way to learn. Edit: Last time we were there was Feb 2020 for the MLR opening weekend. Stayed at the Westgate. Would never take my wife there but a great place to take my kid. Last night session at the table ended up next to Tony DeMarco, 1950s era Welterweight Champ with a huge ring. CSB and all that.
