Remember the Alamo


I had been telling Jenna about the ultra cool Alamo Theater they have here in Houston. This was the first time I'd ever seen a theater that sold alcoholic drinks during movies. You can order dinner too and they'll keep bringing you beer and food during the show. They actually crawl in front of the seats to serve people watching the show so that they don't disturb anyone in the audience.


Well I was pretty excited to show Jenna this landmark and last week we drove past it and I excitedly pointed out to her 'Jenna, there's the Alamo that I've been telling you about'.


She looked confused and kept reiterating 'That's the Alamo?'. I said 'yeah, see the big neon sign? '


Fortunately it finally dawned on me that NOOOOO that's not "THE ALAMO". Good thing I figured it out or she'd be thinking that there was a big war held at the theater by the Mall. Of course as much as I hate war I could see defending an outlet mall or a good bookstore.....

Ha-ha! Hey, the Emagine theater has an alcohol concession stand, but you have to get refills yourself. (And it is very expensive!) The old Quo Vadis theater served alcohol, too - way back in the 70s!
