OSU vs. Texas Watch Party at Germania

Kick off one of the Buckeyes' biggest games of the season with us.

Doors open at 5:30 PM, two hours ahead of Ohio State's 7:30 PM kickoff in Austin on ABC, and stay open through an hour after the final whistle. Everyone is welcome, members and non-members alike, and the space is family-friendly with both indoor and outdoor seating for parents watching with kids.
