Red River:
Also a street in
Austin, TX, that runs through the East side of downtown, parallel with
I-35. Several
clubs and
bars border the street, including the world-famous
Stubb's Barbeque and outdoor music venue,
Club de Ville, the
Mowhawk,
Elysium,
Beerland,
Emo's, and IV.
It's just far enough on the East side of downtown that you don't have to deal with too much of the
6th street retards, with their
high heels and horrible hair cuts, but still centralized enough that you can
people watch for hours on end.
If you're willing to deal with the numerous
crackheads who will proposition you for some favor or another, monetary or not, then hanging out down there isn't so bad. There's also the 'Weenie King,' a man with the best
hot dogs I've ever had sold out of a half-sized trailer. On the trailer, there's a picture of him dressed up like
Elvis, hence the title of his business.
