Weekly RuPaul's Drag Race viewing party at Drinks Backyard where attendees can pet the venue's bar cat, Peppercorn. 21+ after 8pm.
Come Pet Peppercorn is back at Drinks Backyard this Friday, July 24, from 7 PM to 9 PM. It's a weekly RuPaul's Drag Race viewing party, so the whole night is built around watching the show on screen with a crowd. If you've been following the season, it's a good spot to catch the latest episode without having to do it from your couch.
The name tells you exactly what else is on the menu. Peppercorn is the venue's bar cat, and the party doubles as a chance to pet her. Between the episodes and the drag, you can spend some time with the cat, which is a nice, low-stakes addition to a night of drag and reality TV. It's a simple, two-part draw: the show on the screen and the cat on the bar.
It's also part of the 'Drag in Austin' series, so it fits into a larger run of drag shows around town. If you're already keeping track of that scene, this is one of the weekly stops. The viewing party format means you're watching the same episode as everyone else in the room, so you'll have people to talk through the twists and turns with in real time.
