For some, it's better than Christmas.  Texas/OU Weekend is upon us, and we've got a handy list of drinking spots whether you've got tickets or not. 

With the State Fair winding down as TX/OU comes to town, Fair Park and the Cotton Bowl are bracing for a bumping celebration.  For good old TEXAS down-home watering holes, hit up Adair's and sip cheap beer over shuffleboard, or the Angry Dog for cheap beer over cheap (awesomely delicious) bar food.  

Ten Sports Grill offers up the classic man cave, or for a slightly more upscale, but still football-heavy choice, there's Idle Rich Pub, with cocktails and giant TVs for everyone. 

Play Sunday morning quarterback with some greasy food and strong margaritas.  Foodie fans love Market Street Diner, while Matitos Tex Mex Cocina, which was voted one of the top tequila bars in the U.S., provides an excellent ambience and family-recipe margaritas for a hair of the dog.
