Election Watch / Victory Party - Dallas, TX @ Gilleys

With some goading I got my wife to go with me to an election watch party for Obama supporters at Gilley’s near downtown Dallas.  Gilley’s is a large country resteraunt/bar that hosts many private parties/functions for large groups.  I highly recommend the venue for business parties.  If you’re in Dallas and throw a party be sure to send me an invite or send me a tweet on twitter.  I’ve been to a couple of events at Gilley’s including the IHG Investor’s Conference party and I haven’t been disapointed.  They even have a mechanical bull.

This was the first time I’ve been motivated enough to go to a watch party on election night.  Usually I just watch it at home on TV and go to bed disapointed in the past 2 elections.  This experience was a good one.  Seeing the energy of the crowd regardless of affiliation is definitely invigorating to say the least.

There were plenty of TV’s at Gilley’s and of course the bar in case you need to celebrate or drown your sorrows should your candidate not win.

I should have worn a bigger shirt. I definitely need to hit the gym.
