    Deutschen Pfest 2018 prices (late post)
    Michelle W.

    First I want to say keep an open mind here and have fun!!!! There have been a lot of friends who were disappointed with what is behind the gate after they pay to get in. This is Pflugerville so it won't be too large. There was a very irate woman who felt there wasn't much inside here. I agree with the other reviewers that there isn't too much of German culture as one may expect. The admission to the fest is reasonable. $5 on Friday and Sunday and $7 for Saturday. The proceeds from the entrance fee goes back to Pflugerville's park projects. Isn't that a plus? The festival offers a carnival, children's area, a parade Saturday morning, Deutschen Pfest 5K, vendors, food trucks and even live music. The park is very shady with nice trees. The festival is yearly and occurs on the third weekend of May. I love to catch the German band, Oma and the Oompahs perform. My friends love coming here yearly to sit and listen to music. Who doesn't like vendor food? There is a petting area for the kids. If you haven't been, come check it out.

    Meh. A coworker told me to check this festival out because it was such a hype extravaganza in p-ville. I don't think it was a bust but it certainly wasn't the best for my demographic. Others have highlighted the high cost for entry into the park, $7 gets you a wristband and thus you shell out that times how ever big your family/party is. Then move into the park where you have carnival style rides and little pony rides and petting zoos. Cute, but very centered towards kiddos so my husband and I weren't about to be those adults beers in hand and riding the spinny rides til we puked. Let's save that for 2 Wednesday's from now? The booths and activities are scattered through the huge park with live music playing by the stage for all to listen to. There were a variety of food vendors which reminded me of the typical outdoor food vendors at any festival you go to. Price point is $7-15 depending on where you stop and what you get. I got a simple Asian meal plate for $8 then husband got a turkey leg for $8 as well. Water was sold for $1 and the women's line for the restroom was extremely long. Yikes. Extremely uncomfortable were at times the 5+ religious affiliation groups trying to reel folks in, an Allstate local office being pretty pushy on sales and other "spam" you win $500 to the Bahamas type of spin the wheel nonsense. Vendors were neat to scope as well as their unique wares but nothing caught my eye that made me want to purchase something. The funniest thing was seeing a beat up car hosted by Caliber Collision for the Pflugerville HS to get 6 hits for $1 donation. Kids were certainly having fun bashing it good with sledgehammers. Glad I went to check out but not feeling like I missed out on anything major. Thanks for the experience though!

Enter off of Old Settler's and exit onto 79 by the Salt Lick. It took us one hour and 25 minutes to get to the ticket booth! Yes, we all had to pee. Like real bad. I almost jumped out of the car and used one of the road cones for shielding. Luckily they had some (4ish) port-o-potties once you got inside. That area is kinda dark though. Bring a flashlight. Maybe some snacks? Bring the dog and the kiddo's. Kids are gonna love this. The trail was cutely themed with a reminder of celebration to preparation to dinner time with dessert to Santa's Coal Mine to the North Pole Rodeo. It was all cute and made me wish I had some kids in my car so I could vibe off of their excitement. My favorite part was the end light tunnel. It was fully lit and would do the roving flashing thing every once in awhile. Unfortunately we got stuck with the steady on feature. Which really sucked because I wanted to experience the roving flash. There's a little Christmas Town at the end, so be sure to park and check it out. More lights, petting zoo, and little carnival. Also some food. Take the kids, they will talk about this for a long time. Good for Round Rock to bring in their own originality. Was this worth all the effort and the $15? Sure, why not? Is it four star worthy? Not really, but, one star for bringing attention to 'da Rizzle. This is year three, hopefully, they will continue to grow and improve.

If they only would charge for kids entry, that would be wonderful. This place is for kids up to 10 years old and mostly for toddlers and little kids. My 11 years old was not impressed and 3 year old was having fun. I was bored, nothing for adults. Would I go back? Probably not. The weather was perfect for pumpkin patch, the lady up front was very friendly. Some kids were rough and parents were not present.

Despite all that, there were a few things the kiddos enjoyed: - The bounce house. - The corn patch was a hit. - Pumpkin painting (free with a ticket). - Watching some animals behind the fence (but no, this wasn't a petting zoo). - The $8, 2-minute pony ride. At the end of the day, the kiddo had a blast, and that's what matters most. However, the total cost--$30 for tickets (3 tickets), $8 for the pony ride, $8 for a gross agua fresca, and $10 for 2 pumpkins--comes out to $56. To be honest, that's pretty disgusting for what you actually get here.

A nice atmosphere. Lots to do. The regular park is there as well as the lake. Plenty of porta potties all around. Plenty of vendors to stroll through and see all the different stuff. Plenty of alcohol! At night there are many people wandering about with glow in the dark accessories for sale. Bring your cooler, your blanket, your chairs, your sunscreen and find a nice spot on the lawn.. and enjoy your day! I HIGHLY recommend staying for the movie that is playing... even if you don't want to see it, because the traffic leaving after the firework show is unimaginable! HAVE FUN!

I believe they had fireworks at night but we were there in the afternoon. The event was very organized and there was plenty of parking. I'd say they drew a crowd in the thousands on July 4th. This is a free event and its' really quite nice. Very nice for families with younger children.

    My second time ever to the Dell Diamond. It's so close to me, but I've never gone to a true Round…read moreRock Express game. Shame on me! I had a coupon for me and a plus one to have a reserved seat for free at the Dell Diamond, and I wanted to take advantage of it. I convinced my buddy to go with me to an opening series game where the Round Rock Express faced the Gwinnett Stripers. We agreed to go on a Wednesday to get our dollar hot dog night on. You know how that goes. Of course, going to every sporting event feels like they are going to nickel and dime you. It's $15 for parking, so if you can carpool, I'd highly recommend it. Beers range from $12 for domestic to $14 for craft. Everything is pricey. The hot dogs still remained $2 the whole night. Selfishly, I ate 5 over the nine innings. I didn't eat much through the day, and a decent ballpark dog was calling my name. As for the actual game, it was over by the second inning. The night was very windy, so no balls had a chance to go yard. The Stripers scored 6 runs at the top of the 2nd and it was 7 scoreless innings for the Express. Ay caramba. The nice gentleman in front of us was at the game with his wife and gave us good conversation. We watched kids rabid for the flying foul balls. Sometimes the game isn't even the most entertaining part because the stadium has a story of its own. The hot dogs were very nice. At a dollar, they could be lukewarm, soggy, and wrinkled, but they were dense, flavorful, and actually pretty good. Sometimes I wonder if dollar dogs are cheaper and they probably are, but you couldn't fool me. They weren't jumbo quarter-pound dogs by any means, but they were a normal quality-sized wiener. I drank a draft of the Love Street Blonde, one of my favorite common craft beverages, and got a can of Michelob Ultra from a very nice hawker that I obviously tipped. I just don't really like Michelob Ultra, I realize. I took a stroll through the Dell Diamond before leaving and there's a lot of cool spots from their yard in the back, which is great for just relaxing during the game, though the view isn't the most ideal for the action (great for bombs though). There's a full bar as well with baseball simulators and TVs showing other games, but if I'm paying money to park and watch a game, maybe that's not the move IMO. Regardless of the Express getting rocked by the Stripers, I had a great time and want to return to more Express games this season. As a young adult, the deals on weekdays are too good to pass up. Thursday might be a move in the future for those $4 domestics, $7 drafts, and cheaper food options around the park. Maybe next time the Express will get more runs than hot dogs I ate.
