Who has the best selection of fine wines?

Should we ask John Mackovic?

Anyone would be better than me. Not much of a wine person. WER

Mezzaluna had a pretty good list as I recall. So did Louie's off of Congress. There used to be a fabulous little underground place called the wine cellar. No food just spirits... closed down in '92 I believe. They had everything.

Hmmm, never heard of it, where was (is) it?
~stacey Thu, Oct 16, 1997 (09:12) #5
downtown off of Congress somewhere

Near anything?
~stacey Thu, Oct 16, 1997 (12:29) #7
it's been so long... um. All you could see from the street was a door. Then you had to walk down a flight of stairs to get to the entrance.

That will be hard to find. Hey, I got a press pass to the MTV games, Sharon Jones just called. These are the extreme games in Zilker park. So look for another photo slide show on http://www.spring.com sometime soon. I wish you could see these Stacey.

How does one go about getting press passes? WER
~terry Fri, Oct 17, 1997 (00:33) #10
I'm getting mine from Sharon, but she only has three. If I hear of another, we'll have to press you into service as a reporter for the Spring.

When are the games?
~terry Fri, Oct 17, 1997 (12:28) #12
Today, Saturday and Sunday. I'm going to Midnight Madness at UT tonight: women's volleyball and mens basketball playaround at midnight.

that usually happened on Halloween...

No, I meant in general. How does one apply for them. I already several places that I can report for, I just don't know the dynamics of applying for press passes for specific events. WER

I'm not sure, you have to know the right person. Just call the organization till you find the person in charge of passes.
~stacey Mon, Oct 20, 1997 (09:31) #16
you can always try and convince someone you freelance for a small publication and see where it gets you. But I'd agree, once I got out of reporting, "who you know" became the key element.
~KitchenManager Mon, Oct 20, 1997 (23:39) #17
ok WER
~KitchenManager Sat, Nov 8, 1997 (02:25) #18
You did good, stacey, 'cause Chronicles readers said: Mezzaluna
~terry Sat, Nov 8, 1997 (09:11) #19
Whenever I hear that I think of OJ.
