My family is game to our first home football game and volleyball match this weekend. What are the other things we must do around these events?

If you’ve never been to a game, Bevo’s Blvd is fun, watching the players enter the stadium, Bevo entering the stadium and the band entrance are all fun. Longhorn City Limits is fun if you like music but can be crowded. Check out the schedule. Gonna be early and chilly this Sat

Ton of family stuff around DKR now. It’s a literal carnival.  
Frank Denius Family University of Texas Athletics Hall of Fame on north side of DKR is awesome if you get there early on game day.

Beach Boys playing for free after game.  

For volleyball on Sunday, you can go to Texas Science and Natural History Museum after match-
