I lived in Dallas for 2 years, and I loved it. There's never a shortage of stuff to do. The people were really friendly to us as Canucks, and at the time beer and food was pretty cheap.
When I lived in Dallas we could find a different bar each night. There was a complex of bars in downtown Dallas called Dallas Alley, all the bars were underground and linked so you could take your drinks from bar to bar.
We went to watch the Cowboys play, went to Southport ranch or whatever its called, and side trips to corpus cristi and mexico were like day trips.
We lived in Irving and interestingly enough prohabition was never repealed there it was a dry county.
Texas-OK rivalry weekend is a must participate.
There was a 6 flags in Dallas that was a lot of fun.
The woman were definately nicer then the Canadian variety, not just in looks but they were friendlier.
We actually went to watch an international bantam hockey tournament as well that featured a team from Toronto that eventually won the tourney after initiating a bench clearing brawl where half the players were thrown out.
I would assume Billy-Bobs in Fort Worth is still going as well.
Go watch the Astro's play some ball, there's nothing like the major league experience.
