ADAM MICHAELS' PICKS

Family Fun
  • San Antonio Zoo (3903 N Saint Marys St)
    Kids love animals and catching my one year old son toddle around while looking at monkeys is awesome. Plus the price of a family membership is a steal! Great place to spend an afternoon.
  • Six Flags Fiesta Texas (17000 IH-10 West)
    Duh!
  • SeaWorld San Antonio (10500 Sea World Dr)
    Shamu is a stud.
  • IMAX Palladium (17703 IH 10 W)
    Love 3D on IMAX. Just be careful of where you sit. I thought Harry Potter was going to poke my eye out with his wand.
  • The Spurs (3201 E Houston St)
    GO SPURS GO!!!!
  • Majestic Theatre (208 E Houston St)
    I was a theater minor in college, so I love seeing shows. There is nothing like the Majestic in San Antonio. If you haven't ever been, its a great place for a date and a lot of fun. We've seen a lot of shows there including Lewis Black and Seinfeld. Some of my favorite nights in San Antonio have happened there.

Places To Eat
  • Alamo Draft House (1255 SW Loop 410)
    Theres nothing like drinking a beer and eating a hamburger while watching a movie on the big screen. Plus, they are opening a new location pretty soon near North Star. Love that place.
  • Taco Taco Cafe (145 E Hildebrand Ave)
    Voted best tacos on the planet (I think).
  • Chris Madrid's (1900 Blanco Rd)
    Best burgers anywhere. Dude, what if Chris Madrids teamed up with Alamo Draft House??? That would be PERFECT!
  • The Gristmill River Restaurant & Bar (1287 Gruene Rd)
    Located in the Gruene Historic District in New Braunfels. It's a great place to get away for the afternoon, have some good food, a few margaritas and just chill. The view through the trees down to the river is beautiful.

Nightlife
  • Chicago Bar (19141 Stone Oak Pkwy)
    Only been there a few times. The bartender girls wore PJ's last time, strange and cool at the same time. Plus, I was there with good friends.
  • Sherlocks Baker Street Pub (16620 San Pedro Ave)
    Nothing says a good time like a few shots of Jager at Scherlocks. Many good times out there.

Fun Things To Do
  • Tubing - Nothing is better.
  • The Ghost Tracks - I've tried it a bunch of times. It's gotta be a hoax.
  • Fiesta - San Antonio will party for any reason. This is a good one.
  • Oyster Bake - I've spent the last 4 years working at Oyster Bake. Even after 20 hours in the sun its a blast!
  • NIOSA - Duh! Kinda feels like a high school passing period (except with people of all ages) with the halls lined with fried everything and kegs. Yeah, just like school!
  • Battle Of Flowers and Fiesta Flambeau Parades - What an experience!
  • Friday Night Football - I'm from Nebraska and there are football fans up there, BUT there is nothing like the excitement that bleeds out of fans when the Friday Night Lights come on.
  • MLK March - Proud that the nation's largest MLK March happens here in San Antonio. I've worked it for the last 4 years and we were always set up at the end so I haven't ever walked it. The experience of seeing 100,000 people over-flowing the streets as they walk with pride is very moving. It's one of my favorite things about San Antonio.

More Reasons To Love San Antonio
  • Chupacabras - Still haven't seen one. But we look for them a lot.
  • NOT Cedar Fever.
  • The fact that most apartments have fire places. Most of the year its over 80 degrees. I find this very funny.
  • Any road NOT under construction.
  • The people.
