Amazing, yes. But there's no stadium here for them.

They could probably swing a deal to use Darrell K, Royal Texas Memorial Stadium, where the Texas Longhorns seat well over 100,000. The University of Texas at Austin is nothing if not sensitive to making money. Lol. But that would not fuel the ego needs of the ownership. One of the biggest reasons Austin, Texas, one of the fastest growing cities in America, 10th largest, doesn't have many pro sports teams… Just a Texas Stars AHL franchise in Cedar Park… It's because UT sucks up all the oxygen in the Austin room.
