We had a fantastic time in El Paso and would definitely go again. We even took the trolley over to Ciudad Juarez and my husband picked up some gator/croc boots for a great price. The bullspen sponsored a fajita dinner that was fun. We spent an afternoon checking out the Wyler Aerial tramway

http://www.tpwd.state.tx.us/spdest/findadest/parks/wyler_aerial_tram/.  The stadium is unique as it is cut into a mountain. The locals were wonderful. And I got a awesome t-shirt with the U of the bulls in the shape of a cactus. What more could anybody want?  ;D  Oh yeah, we could have won. Oh well.....

Pretty much the same for us. We had a great time, but honestly, it's a once-in-a-lifetime trip. As nice as the Sun Bowl is/was,

it's still not a BCS bowl (which is next on the agenda for travel). We toured White Sands, did the day trip to Juarez and the

Bullspen party. We flew through Vegas (short stop) on the way back and got to shoot the breeze with a lot of the Oregon

players (who were baffled at our lack of a 'bowl package of plays', having stuck to everything that was on film).  Look , El Paso

isn't really a tourist destination and Juarez is definitely off the charts now.  Dinner at Cattlemans pretty much takes care of

the agenda.

What sucks is that essentially NO flights go out the evening after the game. I have tickets to the Capital One Bowl with my Dad the next day and would do anything to get back for that.

El Paso and MCC were the best that USF has been to.  Fun as all get up!

Yep, I'd say that's true.

I'd put Charlotte and El Paso up there as great bowl game experiences.

Usf fans will not travel well to EP. Bowl would be unwise to select USF.

I was in EL Paso last week on business...and the locals there said it was one of the SAFEST cities in America.  

JUAREZ, Mexico on the other hand(which is BLOCKS away from El Paso-seriously its scary how close it is) is one of the most DANGEROUS cities in the WORLD.  

No.3 in the world murder counts.

So...don't go to Mexico...and you'll have a great time.  ;)

Honestly...I loved El Paso and wished we were there longer.  

El Paso is as American as a Burrito.  ;)

VERY "cultured(mexican)" vibe there...and watch your cell provider.  Cause the Mexican networks like to slip in to your iPhones and run up your roaming charges.  lol

But all in all...El Paso for USF this year would be REMARKABLE!!!

and to play BC!!! HA!!! I get to smack talk my ex's school!!! YES!!!

GO BULLS!!!
