Texas @ Kentucky?

[TTaylor2135]

Anybody here going and have any tips on where to stay? Never been to Kentucky and going to try to get there Thursday to check out the Keeneland race track for a few days prior to the game. Hotels seem a bit pricy online (i know last minute) so i'm guessing we are there big draw? ha. Any recs or anything would be extremely helpful. Thanks and hook em!

Thanks for posting. I’m going but have never been there. Planning to stay in Louisville and drive in unless someone tells me that’s a terrible idea.

Honestly, don’t mess with staying in Lexington. It’s easier and cheaper to stay in the east end in Louisville or in Cincinnati. It is a bit of a drive but it’ll be cheaper and have more to do than you would in Lex. I lived in Louisville and love it up there just not in the cards to get back up there this year.

We’re staying in Louisville.

Going to the Perryville battlefield Friday or Saturday.  I’m sure we’ll hit a distillery.  
 

@Bobby Burton do you have any plans for OTF?

The company I used to work for headquartered in Louisville, so I've been there a lot.  Neat city, kinda resembles parts of Austin in 70's. Bourbon tours are neat.

I'm sure there are bad parts, like any city, but I liked it.

Appreciate the responses back here!

Stay in Louisville.  Drive in day of game.  It’s an easy drive.
