I will be in Houston on Saturday, November 18th. It would be kind of cool if I could make that the first day I make it to a MeFi meetup.

Site requirements:

-Near Reliant Field
-Has Center Ice (NHL TV package)
-Would be willing to devote at least one television to the Buffalo-Ottawa game

My brother, nephew, and several other Buffalonians will be staying near the stadium Saturday night and going to the game on Sunday. I'll be driving down from Fort Worth to meet them. If you can come up with a place near the stadium that meets the requirements, we can make it double duty and make it both a Sabres fans meetup and a MeFi meetup.

If you're from Houston and *can't* make it to a meetup that night but know of a sports bar that meets the requirements, I would appreciate it if you would share that info. Thanks!

This is the funniest thing I've read in a while. Carry on.

Sadly I'm probably going to be in New Orleans that night, otherwise I'd have tried to make it.

I'm also not too familiar with that part of town so I can't be much help on locating a bar.
