PonyLove, book your room yet? Stampede? BUS? Ponyscott?

ponyscoot, I look forward to seeing Jones Stadium from field level


We can do it RGV, just act like we own the place again, and hopefully we will on Game Day! What hotel is good or the best for us ponyfans to stay?...and on a budget close to the action...


the team hotel is the Holiday Inn & Towers...most, if not all, of the other hotels are on the other side of town...Brownfield Hwy & the Loop. Hampton's over there, Embassy not far away, etc. Takes maybe 10 minutes to go from one side of town to the other. They've opened a Homewood on the west side since the last time we were there...they've got some decent rates.

Thanks!

Gents the way you work the Overton is, you speak with group reservations. Use your credit card to secure 25 rooms. Ask for a starting rate that is = to or less of the competition.
$89 work up from there. Get a code share It here sAve money.

If you booked with the hotel it's not a problem.
Once the group rate is secured drop the old reservation.

If a travel giant was used you're porked.

Just booked our stay at 171 a night. Looking forward to blacking out with some true pony fans after the HUGE win at TT and bringing it back to SMU to take the Skillet.
