Fresno likes Stone Foxes

If you were older than 19 you might have missed last night's show at Starline.  But those under that age didn't seem too.  There were a lot of them.  Frisco's The Stone Foxes played and I've never seen Starline so packed on a Tuesday night.  Was it because school's out or is Fresno all about Stone Foxes? 

A brief video of The Stone Foxes last night:

Monday Hangover: Last Call for the Bandwagon

ClaytonAllison I know there are Fresnans and Fresnan Bloggers out there that don't know what the big deal is.  But this Diamond Dog run IS a big deal foos and there's still a little bit of time left to get on board with the rest of town.  IF you still don't get it,  this letter to the Bee Sports Editor will say it better than I can:

Hooray for Fresno State. I love witnessing the advancement of the baseball team in the College World Series. For me, this is so much bigger than just a win on a scoreboard. I see ourselves as a community in this team. All of our grit, heart, determination and sheer will to survive is something that all of us Fresnans embody. I wish them continued good fortune as they break through walls everyone warned were too high to climb.

-Kelly Racca Clovis

The bandwagon leaves the ahh...band...wagon...station at 4:01 Monday.

More Downtown Lounging? I'm in

WELCM_EXTR_01_E We here at The Fresnan are very happy to see this Van Ness Ave/Fulton Mall hotel, reopen. Even more stoked knowing The Sky Room (lounge), at the top of the new Holiday Inn, will be open soon.

Anything that brings more people downtown and on the Fulton Mall is good in this blog's Fresno book.
