SXSnippets: With Jock Jams and Red Bull in tow, RecBob hits the streets

The home stretch – time to take what we've learned the previous three days and fine tune the machine.

10 a.m. - Load up the RV and head downtown. This was our first morning to sleep (eight hours of sleep, more than double what most of us had gotten in the prior two weeks). This morning, we are ourselves – leaving the team uniforms, games and prizes to rest for a few hours while we re-discover what it feels like to wear our own skin again.

10:15 a.m. - Stopped at an Imeet.com event at Texenza Coffee for free coffee and tacos. There is practically free food on every corner at SXSW.

11:30 a.m. - Next stop, Frank (hotdogscoldbeer.com) for Bloody Marys, loaded with bacon. I should mention that we also got a free mimosa here, courtesy of HBO. Being the bacon aficionados that we are, we couldn't turn down tasting the bacon infused Makers Mark, followed by the chocolate covered bacon. Yes, Austin knows how to eat (and drink).
