Seeing George Strait at the Moody Center was such a fun experience overall. The venue itself was…read moreeasy to navigate, which made getting in, finding seats, and moving around during such a packed concert much less stressful. The staff throughout the arena were also incredibly helpful and friendly, which definitely added to the experience. That said, there are a couple downsides worth mentioning. The floor seating is VERY close together, so it can feel cramped once everyone is settled in. Also, the concession prices were honestly outrageous -- one pretzel and a drink came out to almost $40, which felt excessive even for a concert venue. Still, George Strait put on an amazing show and the energy in the arena was unforgettable. If you're going for a big concert, it's definitely a great venue -- just be prepared for tight seating and expensive snacks.

However some them I've seen Ice Cube and some other shows and they were fun...so I threw an extra star back your way dude. Ok Wayne? OK Garth? The seats are a bit tight here so eat a salad before you come. And drinks start at $17 for a beer and more for cocktails (you can get a margarita for $26). So leave your credit cards at home and you won't get tempted. Buying drinks here is insane in the membrane. But they do have a few restaurants with nice vibes. See you back there in a couple weeks for Demi Lovato!! Maybe you'll get another review.

The energy is always lively in the building. I will warn people. Be aware of the weather and the time of the day of the game. My friends and I enjoyed the game. But we went to a noon game on a day that it was over 90 degrees. Even with hats, we couldn't last the whole game and had to leave early. If you go during a hot day, I'd recommend buying covered seating if possible. If you can, I'd also suggest trying to go to a night game. Night games are way better. Regardless, the stadium is amazing and the team has been phenomenal. Since moving to Austin, I go to games all the time with my wife and friends.

What do you say about DKR? It's undergone some major transitions since my days as a student. I mean…read morethe jumbotro, the burnt orange fireworks, the drone shows. Game days and nights at DKR are a spectacle! Game days are swarming with people trying to get to their gates, lines of people trying to order food and drinks, vendors setting up in the middle of nowhere to sell beer, water, seltzers, etc. *Water from these vendors can cost you more than the stadium stores. I don't know how pricing is determined. You can find self serve stadium stores for water, drinks, and snacks. They also have free water filling stations so you don't have to break the bank ordering water, but these can be hard to find when hundred of thousands of people are around. They also offer many food options from Pluckers, Tony C's, SmokeyMo's, Stubbs, HTeaO, Amy's, and so much more. Download the maps to easily find first aid sections, food and drink locations, and make sure to wear your fitness trackers because those stairs are massive.

It's a nice space and the lawn seating is decent as well. Like most venues, expect to pay a ridiculous price for beverages and food. Lines can get insanely long. Definitely not a place you want to drive to, parking is pretty close to non-existent. We actually walked one way on each of our visits and then took a car service. That's the best option. Overall, really good experience during both visits.

There's something special about being outdoors, music playing, and people of all ages coming together just to dance and have fun....Family friendly event. The open space made it feel relaxed and welcoming with good vibes only . The dances were easy to follow, whether you were a beginner or had some experience line dancing, and the sense of community was amazing. Strangers quickly turned into friendly dance partners. Also, plenty of laughs were shared throughout the evening. The fresh air and upbeat music made the whole experience feel uplifting and energizing. It's a perfect way to get some exercise in without it feeling like a workout. This is a great reminder of how fun simple activities can be. Importantly, the Line Dancing was free to the public...6-10 pm. Line dancing in the park is something I would absolutely do again and highly recommend to anyone looking for a fun, social, feel‑good way to spend an evening.

I love the historical brick architecture and it is one of the more aesthetically pleasing buildings on campus. Parking can be a challenge but there are paid garage options available. I have been here on several occasions to watch the UT women's volleyball team play home matches. I have sat in the bleachers and also in the bench seating and all seats have a great view of the floor. The venue is very intimate and had a loud, close-up atmosphere so you fell immersed in the game. This location is also a meeting hub for local clubs and activities. Met up here for the Longhorn runs and packet pick-up. Access to the gym facility is restricted to current UT students and individuals with a current RecSports membership or Day Pass. As a UT student, I also used the workout facilities. They have a variety of activities and amenities and it is a very nice gym facility. I used to do all my strength workouts in the weight room and they have an indoor track and basketball courts.

The women's volleyball team has been solid over the past few years and the tickets were relatively cheap so I figured I'd get us tickets. As soon as we walked into the venue, we could feel the energy in the building. The fans were going crazy throughout the game. Definitely surprised us and exceeded our expectations. Basically every seat in the building has a good view of the game as well. Definitely worth checking out!

This track and soccer stadium is big. This is an open to the sky seating stadium. It was brutal in the Texas sun, heat, and humidity. Fortunately, free water was available to everyone. Best of all, EMS service was giving free cold iced towel to everyone. Anyone can return to get fresh iced towel. Man, that iced towel hitted the spot and saved me and family members from heat stroke. I had one around my neck and on top of my head under baseball cap. Almost everyone in the stadium was doing the same. Bathrooms were relatively clean for such high density usage. Security was tight, which was a relief in a full stadium. There were police patrols everywhere. Parking was $15 in the adjacent parking lot, credit or debit payment via smart phone only. All the fans were polite and kind. No drama or dangerous situation occured. Over all, everyone there had a wonderful time. For my family, it was great catching up with families from all part of Texas.

This was my first time at the baseball field and it was so fun!…read more The field is easily accessible from 35 and MLK or Manor road. Parking in lots and garages is limited, but there is some free street parking (yes! Biggest shock of my life!). We were very early seeing as how parking was so easy and the gates were still locked. After a few minutes the gates were unlocked and we were inside. We started by stocking up on gear. We found the athletic store, grabbed a hat and scarf and moved on to the snacks. The grab and go was perfect. We got hotdogs and popcorn and drinks, placed them on the reader and paid. The attendants were very nice and helpful. Since it was raining and the seats were wet, we were told we could sit up in the dry seats while we waited out the rain. The wet seats weren't bad until that 60 degrees started to feel really chilly. As they say, there's not a bad seat in the house. Definitely looking forward to coming back for more games!

The game time had been changed three times due to weather so we weren't sure if we'd even get to watch the game against the UC Davis Aggies. The good: Stadium is small so there really are no bad seats. Food and beverage prices are reasonable and happy hour prices prior to the national anthem being played unless you buy a Longhorn yeti cup, then you pay the premium. The bad(ish): Parking. It's weird trying to find a spot, we ended up parking on the street for free, so I don't know if it's really a bad. The crowd was pretty chill with the exception of some kids going nuts, but that was a lot of fun to watch. Overall, we enjoyed the game and the stadium. We can't wait to return for some SEC conference games.

This is a review for the Law Library and not the school itself…read more.. As an attorney, I do alot of research on my cases. Sometimes, Google is not enough (haha). In all seriousness, doing online research via Westlaw or Lexis Nexus can be difficult unless you know "key" terms. Sometimes, key terms are hit or miss. For me, going to the Law Library is the best form of research. They have so many resources and law books that it is crazy that more people don't take adavantage of it. The cost for a library card is about $60 a year if you aren't a student or if you haven't had a City of Austin library card for the past 2 months. Anyhow you figure it, it is the best $60 you will ever spend if you work for a law office. I didn't go to law school here, but this library sure makes me wish I had.

4.25 stars. The University of Texas School of Law is one of the preeminent law schools in the…read morecountry, and I am very fortunate to have earned one of my degrees here. Yet, as much as I love the school, I cannot say that it is absolutely perfect. I think it is important to highlight all aspects of the experience. First and foremost, it should be mentioned from the outset that this law school is going to be the best bargain for your money. I was an out-of-state student, and I guarantee you it was significantly cheaper than other schools ranked in the top 15. The quality of education is stellar (I have taken classes at other law schools ranked in the top 20, and I can assure you that while those instructors were very good, the UT instructors were better), and you will find that many of your professors have been prominently involved in the major legal battles of the past half-century. The library, I believe, is the largest law library in the entire country, and the staff is professional and efficient. If you want to be in debt for the next three decades, by all means, go to Penn, Harvard, or Yale. If that isn't how you plan on spending your money after graduation, I would suggest the University of Texas. Next, the law school does an outstanding job building a creative and diverse group of students. I certainly took this for granted while I attended school, but I have re-connected with many of my classmates, and I have almost always walked away thoroughly impressed not only by their exceptional minds, but also by their genuine care for the societal impacts of their craft. I do think most lawyers get a bad reputation from a few bad apples, but the law school here does an almost perfect job of sorting through all of them. Thus, if going to school with people you plan on knowing for the rest of your life is important to you, you should strongly consider UT. The career services office could use some work. It was strongly tailored to the top 1/3 of our class, and I think that when you attend a top law school, it should not be a struggle to find a job post-graduation. Do not believe the US News and World Report average lawyer earnings for UT or any other law school for that matter. They are a complete sham. My class probably made an average of 75K their first year out of law school; I think US News and World Report had our average salaries exceeding 125K. Overall, I enjoyed my experience here. It allowed me to temporarily find comfort in the legal world (albeit in an almost now completely defunct practice area), and I was able to make lifelong connections that have influenced my career in a positive manner. For any student who is applying for law school because they want to leave an indelible mark on the legal profession, I would certainly suggest my alma mater as a proper choice for achieving their objectives.
