Rich UT Fans Continue to Make Caricatures of Themselves
Are you a wealthy UT fan who loves coming back to town for games but just can’t be bothered with making hotel reservations or driving in from your friend’s house in Rob Roy on Saturday mornings?
Rest easy, the Texas Gameday Center is on the way.
Atlanta-based opportunists of the nouveau riche developer Gameday Centers Southeastern LLC (warning: may wanna turn down your sound before clicking) will be converting the tired apartments at Dean Keeton and Red River into a luxury hotel-condominium. We imagine they will ply Houston and Dallas alumni prospects with plenty of Veuve Clicquot in order to keep them from realizing how perilously close they are to I-35 and the (cue Vader theme music) East Side!
Developers will give the first botoxing to The Windsong Apartments, as they transform 51 units into luxury condominiums. From the Statesman: ”The units will be professionally designed, decorated and furnished with Longhorn themes.”
Longhorn themes? That doesn’t sound very gauche, does it?
Hey y’all, look, the pool table’s got a longhorn in the center of it…
Owners will pay anywhere from $160,000 to $1 million for their new crash pads, which they can rent out when not attending games. We’re not sure how that is gonna work exactly, but we can just see Commercial Real Estate Alumnus Guy returning to his part-time spread at the 40 Acres only to find seven fraternity boys and coeds passed out in a circle around his Bevo Bong.
The condos range from 350 square feet, which is not even enough room to put all of your Burnt Orange Coach luggage, to the deluxe 2,000 square-foot three-bedroom suites. Two thousand square feet? Jebus, that's almost as big as a guest house.
Get on the waiting list now, y’all.






THIS WAS MY IDEA BUT I HAD NO TAKERS. SIGH.
Ass-faced clownery begats ass-faced clownery. Hook 'em like there is nothing else to live for.
