If the concept is real good, and the food is especially outstanding, like Torchy's Tacos, you should be successful just about anywhere where it makes sense.

As far as streaming Saints games when in Texas, having recently moved back about three years ago, I can attest that it's much easier now than ever before. The ticket is fixing to be released on streaming platforms. So no dish and its useless cable tv model subscription. One can "find" streams right before games. You may have to switch between them during the game. When I did it, it was maybe twice I had to switch, but it was free.

Good luck. Just get a good internet feed, maybe 400 mbs down. Gig service is nice but unnecessary.

We are going to keep our biggest contract at NASA going, it’s a sure thing but the festivals and street parking is too much of a gamble. Especially the festivals when we pay a $500-$3500 entrance fee and are at the mercy of the weather and crowd. We have good branding, won a ton of competitions, and we are always busy but the cost is killing us. We’re getting out early before we have to dip into our padding, I don’t see prices coming down any time soon. It helps being told how great our economy is right now by the guy in Washington…

They recently had fiber optics run out to the ranch so I’m assuming I’ll have decent speed? Might just buy Sunday ticket anyway. Sometimes they have sign up bonuses. Appreciate the info.
