Red River Rivalry watch party for Texas vs. Oklahoma with screens, BBQ and drinks at The Pit Room.
The Pit Room is hosting a Texas Longhorns watch party on Saturday, October 10, for the Red River Rivalry game between Texas and Oklahoma. It's the one game every year that splits households and fills Houston bars, and if you're not planning on making the trip to the Cotton Bowl, this is one of the spots to catch it.
The setup is straightforward: screens will be running the game, so you've got a clear view of the action without having to hover over a phone or a small TV. It's a watch party in the truest sense—you're there for the game, and you're there with other people watching it. The venue is a BBQ joint, so the food is built around the pit, and the drinks are flowing throughout. It's the kind of afternoon where you can settle in with a plate and a drink and just let the game play out.
Since it's the Red River Rivalry, the atmosphere usually takes care of itself. It's Texas versus Oklahoma, a matchup that carries more weight than just another game on the schedule. Whether you're a lifelong Longhorns fan or just following along with the season, it's the kind of game that's better watched in a room full of people than alone on your couch. The Pit Room is in Houston, so you're right in the thick of it.
