I meant that I didn't get the urgency in which they insisted I couldn't leave Colorado Springs until I saw that Rodeo Hall of Fame. They took me around & I loved the city. I loved going to the Garden of the Gods and the cute teahouses they insisted I see. We spent my last day there at the hall of fame which was odd. By odd, I mean that they aren't big rodeo fans themselves which is why I couldn't believe they wanted to "save the best for last." I must say that parts of it were impressive but we spent almost 3 hours in there! Perhaps they've enlarged the place by now but it wasn't so massive when I went there that it would have taken 3 hours to tour.
I did like the big bull they had penned there. I've never been to a rodeo (still haven't) but it was cool to see how big they actually are in real life.

Quick sidenote: They had these great pictures of the past & present Miss Rodeo. I loved the outfits & the hair especially from the gals of the 70's.

Coors...when your economy beer (Keystone) is better than your main brew (coors light), your company sucks.

AHAHAHA. One time I was at a Broncos game and they were about to stop selling beer and the nearest beer stand had nothing but Coors Light. I was already buzzed so without thinking I got one. HOLY HELL that shit is NASTY. I'll admit that I'm an incorrigible beer snob, but WHO DRINKS THAT? I'll give them a love train right upside the head. Sick. At Rockies games, I don't care how far I have to go or how long the line is, I'm going to "Beers of the World" so I don't have to drink crap.

Anyway, I'm not familiar with Texas beers. Is there anything good that is sold outside the state -- preferably an IPA, porter, or stout?

I think Coors Light was invented so women would drink their beer. When I drank, that was my beer. That was the beer all my girlfriends drank. I never knew a guy who'd touch it! (My brother would give me grief if I asked him to get it while making a beer run, cause he's a beer snob.)

I'm a huge Coors Light fan...for normal everyday beer....I think Miller Light and Bud Light taste like absolute garbage, with Bud Light taking the cake. I am a fan of Bud heavy on the golf course and a MGD every once in a while.

I dunno, maybe its a Texas thing....because almost every guy I think of drinks Coors Light.

Still considered high fashion in Texas. Big hair and hoop skirts...
