re: Things to do near NRG Stadium

I am also staying at Crowne Plaza adjacent to stadium. At least it has a bar. We'll probably just pre-game there. Like others said, train transportation was a cluster after the Wisconsin game. I heard stories of people walking a mile to be able to grab a taxi or to get the to next train station. Uber rates were like 20 times normal. Best to stay close to NRG on game day.
Stayed at the Holiday Inn on other side of stadium for Wisconsin game. Not a lot to do around there, but plenty restaurants nearby on Old Spanish Trail and Main Street. We tried out Pappa BBQ last trip and it was very average. Looking at map, Play Action Sports Bar & Grill and Fat Boys Bar & Grill are close by (walking distance).
Fat Boys looks decent. Happy hour M - F 2:00 to 7:00!

That's a hard lesson to learn. Killens is only 20 minutes south, and well worth the drive and wait.

Thanks for all the replies! Fat Boy's does look like a cool little place and those Happy Hour deals look perfect for pregaming. Hopefully something cool to do outside of the stadium as well. Had a great time partying last year while the Notre Dame fans stared at us in bewilderment.
