Better venue than Reliant?
by Anonymous on 1/2/12Reliant Stadium - HoustonWe thoroughly enjoyed the bowl, simply because the Aggies were participants. However, there were several things that really irritated me on Reliant's part. First, loud music was played nearly constantly. I understand their need to fill air space, especially during pro football commercial timeouts. However, both college bands were trying to play as well. Reliant could have suspended "Freeze Frame" or any number of other songs to allow the student bands to have a chance to shine. Also, we planned ahead so we wouldn't have to purchase any over-priced Reliant food. However, we purchased a foot-long hotdog during the 2nd quarter. The bun was so hard and stale, it might as well have been croutons! The selection at Reliant is very limited and I won' t ever buy food from there again.
