Vanderbilt will play Baylor in the Academy Sports + Outdoors Texas Bowl in Houston later this month. I’ve been a resident of Houston for five years, and my wife has been a Houstonian for a lot longer than that. So, we present to you the guide to everything Houston for your bowl trip.
Houston is large. Really large. Entire states can fit inside of the greater Houston area. We measure distances in time, because two miles might take you 20 minutes at the wrong time of day.
If you’re flying, Houston has two airports. Most — though not all — flights come into the George Bush Intercontinental (don’t call it “International”) Airport, located about 30 minutes north of downtown.
