    Davis Wade Stadium - Getting a photo with the bulldog and stadium in the background.

    Does it count if I visit Davis Wade Stadium but don't actually attend a game??…read moreAccording to my friend Chris, it does NOT COUNT! C'mon Chris really?!?! But in my book, yes, it's a check off the list! So yesterday, on a beautiful spring morning in Starkville, Mississippi, I showed up on the campus of Mississippi State University and walked around Davis Wade Stadium. And for those who are familiar with TikTok, G-Fed tours every D-1 college football stadium (not on game days) and gets credit for it. Now it's my turn, lol. Davis Wade sits in the middle of Mississippi State's campus. First up from the parking lot, you have an undisturbed view of the home side of the stadium. It's perfect for a picture moment with Mississippi State's big "M" logo highlighting this section. Also noticeable were a few banners hanging parallel to the "M" State logo of their famous alumni now succeeding in the NFL. Players like Dak Prescott, Darius Slay and Chris Jones. Walking to the right hand side is the first of two end zones. And this is where things got dramatic, real fast (yes for me being a college football fan, lol)... Mississippi State's lettering was boldly painted behind the end zone scoreboard. Now...if you follow the brick path away from the scoreboard, you approach a statue of their mascot, the bulldog. Then if you turn around for a picture, you not only get the bulldog mascot, but you capture the Mississippi State signed scoreboard in the background too. Within one frame, they make a terrific college football stadium setting, with plenty of charming green grass and trees surrounding it all. I definitely took too many photos here, but I was having fun in the moment. And...for 11am on a Sunday, the campus was quiet and I didn't have to contend with students interfering with my picture taking, lol. Moving on...the horizontal back section of the stadium didn't offer much. I walked past a police station but at least there were more trees and grass to admire (which I didn't mind, lol). Lastly, the second end zone showcased a simple brick building facade. It had an old fashioned feel to it. Underneath the awning representing this end zone were large puzzle pieces embedded into the pavement comprising all the counties that make up Mississippi. It was interesting to observe. And Starkville is located towards the northeast section of the state. Then finally, the walk around felt like a mission successfully completed (from my pov, hahaha). It didn't take long. I finished in under 90 minutes and that was slowly taking my time. Here are some extra thoughts... - I wasn't able to get glimpses inside Davis Wade Stadium or onto the field from outside. - I parked in the front parking lot, but come game days, that won't be feasible whatsoever. - According to Google, Davis Wade Stadium only holds 61,000 seats, but by the looks of walking around, I would think it could pack in a lot more fans, maybe 80,000 - 90,000. - I hope to attend a game someday in the future. There's nothing like SEC football. The best players from the best conference in the country with some of the best stadium atmospheres. And I'd love to hear those iconic cow bells ringing all game long. Overall, I'm glad I made the effort to stop at Davis Wade Stadium in Starkville, MS. For me as a college football fan, I've watched plenty of games on television, but to actually be here with my own two feet and standing on Mississippi State's campus, in person, was a huge thrill whether there was a game being played or not. Thanks for having me Bulldogs!

    Having now been to games in Oxford and Starkville, the experiences could hardly have been more…read moredifferent. At Ole Miss, in the famous Grove, "F*CK YOU AGGIES" was yelled at me - more than once - while carrying my young daughter on my shoulders. At the game, Ole Miss fans spit sunflower seeds on my wife and son. Very classy. At Mississippi State, we enjoyed touring the beautiful campus, stopping to see the Grant and Lincoln collections at the library. We were among State fans a lot, at Bulldog Burger before the game and in a State section of the stadium. To the last person, everyone was friendly or least polite. I would be at 5 stars if not for cowbells! I didn't have preconceptions about these schools before, but now there's only one thing left to say. HAIL STATE!

    Came here with my son-in-law after the egg bowl…read more We were able to be seated immediately in the back area booths near the beer wall. I decided to try the Red Beans and Rice (red beans marinated for 24 hours, simmered with sausage, ribeye, and vegetables, and served over rice). While the ribeye added to the traditional dish, I was not a fan of the overall end result. It actually seemed like the whole dish had been cooked for 24 hours until there was almost no moisture left. The rice part was fine. My son-in-law decided to try the fried catfish I had been considering. While cooked well and had good flavor, the batter was not the expected cornmeal style normally associated with fried catfish. They were also out of the particular beer he had been wanting to try. After multiple attempts to pick one from the menu, the server said it might be easier to show you what we do have on tap. Service on this visit also left a lot to be desired. From the delay taking the order, having to flag a server down for drink refills and even to get the check. It was not busy enough to cause the service we received. We had been before with my daughter and wife and had a much better experience. So I am not sure if things have gone downhill or just an anomaly. The burger I had on the previous visit was very good and the Rosey Chips (house made potato chips) were pretty good too. My daughter is a big fan of their fried pickles appetizer. Will. Give them another shot, yes but there are plenty of other options we will likely go to first.

    I hadn't been there since the mid-90s. It was ok but not special at all and I likely wouldn't go…read moreback until about 30 more years. The food was not bad and the service was not bad. Nothing was amazing at all though.

    Well unfortunately I have waited too long in writing my review. However I couldn't let it go…read morewithout one. We were headed back from AR from a graduation and while staying in Tupelo found this restaurant close to our hotel. Not from being around the area weren't real sure about it but only because we were not seeing a lot of food items we liked. However because it was close by our hotel and the star rating was high, we decided to try it out. Oh my gosh; I am so glad we did. Even months ago enjoying our food to now, I can still remember how amazingly tasty our food was. My hubby and I shared the Dirty Grains with greens and things. We both have never had greens in our lives, but our server told us they were very scrumptious at the Blue Canoe. She was spot on!! They were delicious, really the entire meal was DELISH!! I am so glad we shared the dish because it was a lot and very filling. Now the restaurants famous sauce that is made fresh every day is worth its weight in gold. Our server has been there a very long time and she said she is the gal who makes it daily. I can't really explain the taste but it is very, very tasty. We were so full and it as going to pass on dessert. Of course our server told us about their dessert that is #1 on the menu...Connie's Blueberry Doughnut Bread Pudding (pictured). Once again super scrumptious and worth every calorie. If you are new to the area I highly recommend a trip to the Blue Canoe. It doesn't look like much outside and inside it can seem like a dive. It isn't because it's been around d a while and the ambiance is really cool!! The parking lot gets quite full and was just a bit challenging to maneuver our large 250 GMC truck but we managed. This place is a gem and well worth our visits when we are traveling through. I'd love to go when they have live music but not sure when we will be driving through.

    Go here, it's everything you need as advertised!…read more Service is great, they always have live music, good draft beer menu.

However Rama Jama's might have been one of the worst experiences I've ever had with food quality. I genuinely can't imagine how someone would look at that hotdog and serve it to a customer. It wasn't even burnt from a grill I'm pretty sure this hotdog was being boiled since they opened. On top of that it cost 19 dollars for a black hotdog, a burger, and a side of fries (that don't come with the meal you have to pay extra). They also charge 3 dollars for water throughout the whole venue. All in all, make sure you eat and drink before you come.

    This was my first time going to the Venue and it actually is a very nice area. I believe as I first…read morewalked in I saw a few stores. I did not get the chance to visit the stores, but I definitely will come back and visit soon. I came to the Venue for the Margarita Festival. It is a decent sized area that has nice seating and a small stage. The parking area is somewhat small, but luckily we were able to park next door and walk over. I will say for this hot summer day, I wish the Venue would've offered a few additional things: They didn't have enough shading. The only shad I noticed was under awnings and from the trees. I noticed that some of the picnic tables and chairs had umbrellas, but not all of them. Also I didn't see any misting areas and/or watering areas. They could do like they do at the ALABAMA games and have a huge cooler with the cheap cups and offer free water during events. Especially since this was an outside festival, water was definitely needed as I also didn't see where you could purchase water. Nonetheless, the Venue is a nice spot for events. I will have to look at their site to become more acquainted and see if they have any other events here.
