El Paso? I spent a month there one night!

Shouldn't this be in the Travel & Leisure sub-forum?

Can't get more El Paso than Marty Robbins singing "El Paso".

Re: The El Paso Thread
We should allow this thread to die quickly, much like what everyone in El Paso wish for themselves.
Of the 12 coaches, Rush picked the one whose fans have the deepest passion, the longest memories, the greatest lung capacity and … did I mention deep passion?
Re: The El Paso Thread
Spent a night there in October. I'll say it has bigger skyscrapers downtown than I thought.
i was going to put the ua/asu records here...but i forgot what they were.
i'll just go with fuck asu.

Only reason I'd ever try El Paso is if the Cat's make the Sun Bowl.
Just too far out of the way.

Re: The El Paso Thread
I actually lived in EP for two years when I got my first job after UofA. A two-year sentence as my old Manzi-Mo roomie used to call it.
I hated it, but I will say the food was excellent. Lots of great Mexican and steak places, even a really good Chinese place.
And back then (late '80s) we used to go to Jaurez all the time, it was fairly safe. Wouldn't be caught dead there at night anymore.
Weather is decent too.

My dad was born there. Has no good memories to recommend about it, save the Marty Robbins song.
Oh, and an early 1950s military movie, Take the High Ground, was filmed in Ft. Bliss.
Tough sell anymore, that place.

Re: The El Paso Thread
My brother-in-law is in the Army, and just got his PCS orders to Ft. Bliss. He has been stationed in Hawaii for the last 6 years. Talk about going from one extreme to another.

Re: The El Paso Thread
So it's settled then. When are we all going?
