POLL: Where would you rather have the State Championships? ATT or NRG or Alamodone?

Won't matter. This board has far more DFW area posters than Houston or San Antonio. If you could poll the entire states schools (all of them)....

I’m not sure about that. It would be hard to tell. I bet there are a lot of STX posters that just read and never comment. It’s once in a pink moon that a STX team makes it north anyway.

Well that doesn’t seem very fair to the entire state.

Light years closer than ATT only. Where would you play them?

Personally? Having seen a game - not necessarily a state title game - at all the aforementioned stadiums, AT&T is certainly the best, but it’s kind of splitting hairs to me. But if I had to pick one, that particular one would get my vote. I’m also perfectly content with a rotation, although, I’d leave the Alamo Dome out of the conversation and just go between Arlington and Houston. But like a Cuero poster said, I don’t give a rip where the game is played if Celina is playing in it.

Truth be told, though, I miss the old days when the teams decided on a neutral site to play the game. And you might be the only team playing at that site, so everything wasn’t so regimented, and rigid and rushed to stay on some schedule. Teams - and their fans - had plenty of time to celebrate and take pictures on the field after it was all said and done.

Jesus tell you that?

No he was to busy eating burritos at the local taco stand.

I agree with all of that 100% I couldn't care less about fancy stadiums and all the hype. Left alone,the people running things now,will eventually turn our HS Championships into a week long run of the same manure the SB has become.

Here is my thoughts for what they worth. If it's in DFW I might and have gone to games where my team isn't playing. That can be said for thousands of fans.

If my team is playing.......I'll drive my F150 to Mexico City if that is what it takes.

Never been to Alamodome or NRG. Won't say they are better than ATT because I don't know. But I do know this......if P4S will drive to ATT, and she has, and say it's better. I am a believer.

It's just an opinion. Ok it's not very nice stadiums.

Look at us having a fun, civil discussion and even finding some common ground. Let’s make this go viral, people!

And your last sentence hits the nail on the head for me, speed. Maybe I’m just nostalgic, or too sentimental, or whatever, but the whole spectacle it’s all become has a sort of innocence lost feeling to me. I just miss the sort of raw, unbridled pageantry of the way it used to be. It felt a little more special to me. But, anyway, I digress ...

We are the only ones that know what the discussion is about. The kids in the back think it's about who has the prettiest stadium.

Alamodome would be nice if they opened up the beer garden like the do for the state basketball tournament.
