    Extraco Event Center was holding a dinosaur exhibit for the community. Slightly high pricing for entry, decent amount of space for props/attractions and was held in a mid-sized city (Waco). Pros: -props varied in mechanical, interactive and stationary -8 activities to interact with -indoor/outdoor -Ride-a-dino for children -cleanly and regularly stocked restrooms -friendly staff -more than sufficient parking available -bouncy houses and sport related activity -fossil making -Green screen photos had very realistic backgrounds (6 to choose from) -appropriately timed educational video on dinosaur history (30 minutes) -decent traffic flow (averaging 100 people) -3/4 hours of entertainment Cons: -long line for face painting, 1 hour wait, only 3 employees -one small concession without enough variety -over priced gift merchandise -VIP bracelet did not include all activities -Not enough seats to break from walking around the exhibit -One dinosaur had visible damage -fossil dig was sectioned off too far for average child to reach and fully enjoy -some dinosaur facts had too poor of lighting to read information clearly and without strain My overall rating on this event is a 4.4/5.0. There were areas of improvement needed but nothing that would ruin kids and adults from having a good time. Definitely would suggest that the VIP bracelet include all activities, more seating, slightly lower pricing on merchandise (turn off on buying goods due to high prices), make the fossil dig more accessible (second most visited activity), 1-2 more staff needed in the face painting and fix lighting on a few of the dinosaur facts. I am leaving this positive review because children will have more than enough to keep them entertained.

    Rattlesnake Roadhouse - Wings and Onion Rings

    I came on Saturday the 15th for the Car Show. Per John's…read moresuggestion, I decided to try the upstairs. The upstairs bartender (sorry I did not get you name) was great. Bloody's were very good. Not sure what was in the pitcher, but they were not made by pouring out of a bottle of Zing Zang. (which I do like btw) This is in a very rustic, hastily put together space, and now that the problem child is gone. it is time for some upgrades and a makeover - as John has suggested. You have your proof of concept, now just dress it up. A suggestion on the sound. It was pretty much inaudible upstairs. I could hear that ya'll were talking - just very hard to make out the words. Which was a shame because I really wish I could have made out the Q&A Session better. I saw speakers everywhere - they just were not sending words to me. Not sure if it was better downstairs.

    On a trip for business I found myself in Walnut Springs Tx.. As I was driving I remember wishing I…read morehad my Bike with me to take that ride. Once I arrived I knew I was right by the amount of Harleys that were outside. Some Custom some Stock. Even the parking out front was reserved for Bikes. If you like riding to Strokers in Dallas you will love Roadhouse. If you are in North Texas and you head here you will not be disappointed. From what I understand the establishment is under New Ownership. Management, from my experience is killing it. The menu has a lot of options and literally everything wa appealing. I'm a Wing guy so that was a given. Big Wings cooked and seasoned perfectly served with what might be the best hand cut Onion Rings I had in a long time. If I remember there were like five flavors and I'm sure there was no bad choice on flavors. There is also a Steakhouse from what I'm told serves a very good Rib Eye. I should also mention the Burgers were said to be the best around. The Bartender Jennifer was very nice and made some tasty Cocktails. They also had a very good selection of Beers and some that seemed to be Texas favorites lol. I had a chance to talk to the Manager Reggie who was a nice guy. He said they have live Music some days.The place was.complete with a Stage and an area for Dancing. He said Ted Nugent was there recently. Definitely it my thing but to each his own. It's off the beaten path but as I said a great place to go to get away for a few Hours. Next time I'm in Fort Worth I'll probably go again. Especially if I find a business that Rents Bikes. Still thinking about those Wings. Lol. Yallhollatchaboy'.
