Night at the Alamo

After partying it up along the Riverwalk in San Antonio, Foo wanted to visit the Alamo again at night to see if the ghosts would come out and play. It turned out to just be a cool Foo-to opportunity.

Money Doesn't Grow on Trees...

But clearly it grows on the ceiling of Mad Dog's British Pub in San Antonio... Seems a strange way to save your money, but eh... everything's a little strange in Texas...

Forever Foo

Even Foo found himself a little starstruck coming this close to Rod Stewart On a Downtown Train.... well actually at Mad Dog's.

Where Everybody Knows Foo's Name...

Like everywhere Foo goes, he makes tons of friends, real and fake. The waitstaff (all in kilts) fell in love with Foo. 










Foo got love from the customers as well. One was a pilot in training! 


Foo also loved the bagpipe bloke and the beefeater, but they were a little stiff lipped so didn't really say much.



Guiness Pint of Foo Records

While at Mad Dog's, Foo decided to get his drink on, taking on this long pint all by himself. 

Hiccup... it was a looooong night.

I'm MAD!!!

At least the sign says so... Foo had a fabulous time at Mad Dog's British Pub on the riverwalk in San Antonio, Texas. 


He loves that they named the place after him AND framed his kilt. (He used to be a lot bigger back then.) 


He even got to sing karaoke on this great London-esque stage with his friend Big Ben. Ben's kind of shy, and only really gets the "Bong" part of the songs, but he's still good backup!

Durty Durty Boy

After dinner, Foo found himself at a rowdy Irish pub on the riverwalk called Durty Nelly's where he frollicked Foo-fully among the peanut buckets 


He clearly made quite the mess on the table, but the waiter was very forgiving. 



After the mess was swept away, Foo enjoyed pints of good Irish beer while listening to his new piano-playing friend who sang "Sweet Home Chicago" just for him!

Tres Mariachis!

Foo made some new friends as always with the strolling mariachis along the riverwalk in San Antonio. They were eager and excited to get Foo-toed. They followed it up with a charming love song in Spanish. Foo wants to be a mariachi in his next life, but he first needs to learn Guantanamera.... and have opposable thumbs or lungs... hmmm maybe he should just be their mascota!

Yummy Zuni

Foo loved eating at this restaurant along the riverwalk in San Antonio, Texas. He even went back for breakfast. But dinner was yummy seared tuna and blue corn enchiladas coupled with live mariachi music!

Cannon Foo Run

Foo gets ready to go into battle and readies the cannons for firing... He's really not interested in being the ammunition though.

More Foo for You!

Everywhere Foo goes, he finds family of all colors and sizes. We are foo-mily!! It's nice to see familiar faces far away from home.

Jackelopia!

Foo made a bunch of new mythical friends in Texas! Now he and his jackelopian army will prepare to take over the world!!




Come my minions!!

Oh and to answer the giant jackelope's t-shirt question... Hellllllllls no!!! Hence why, if you look closely, Foo is pooing on the t-shirt.

Where Have All the Cowboys Gone...

As part of Foo's ongoing Texas cowboy makeover, he decided to try on some foo-sized spurs he found at a San Antonio boutique. Sexy!!

Foo-asaurus Retch!

Foo feared not his new T-Rex friend, at least not at first. 

Rexy had a bit of an attitude and started to get a little cranky during the photo session, but Foo thinks it was just time for a snack.

Anybody know what a T-Rex eats?

Transformation Foo

Foo loved meeting Bumblebee of the Transformers fame, but he didn't really have a ton to say. Foo just wonders where Optimus Prime is hiding. That dude is crafty.

Foo... Foo Dog Gump

Foo was excited to get his photo taken with Forrest Gump, but he's not sure he he can sit and listen to more ways to cook shrimp. However, Foo is like a box of chocolates because you never do know which stories are nutty or creamy or full of fruit.

Foo Vs. Predator

Yeah... no story here. Foo was clearly on the winning end of this fight. It was even too short to make a major motion picture of, so if at all, it's going straight to DVD.

Hearts and Stars

Foo wanted to test his love life and get his palm read.


As far as love, he's a burning, burning hunk o' Foo babe, ready to meet that Foo-rific lady. 
His palm reading question was, "Will I get to travel more in the future?" And clearly, the stars say "yes." Excellent!

It's Electrifying!!!!

No, it's not Grease Lightning, but it is an electric chair. Shockingly, Foo said he didn't do it, but they still gave him the chair... He was in Texas after all...

DO... NOT... TOUCH!

Foo found this friend very funny... but very standoffish. Foo did admit that it would be hurty if they were to hug, so they decided to be two ships passing in the night... Bye bye ouchy friend.

Quixote de Metal

Foo loved running into his good friend Don Quixote again. It has been too long! They are fabulous friends, both being errant travelers out for fame and fortune and adventure. This time, Quixote and Foo regaled each other about their recent travels and made plans to go somewhere together next time!

Foo De Mexico

Foo wanted to be Mexican today to have solidarity with his hermanita, Egg, so he found a Foo-sized sombrero!









See Egg's adventures at http://eggsessential.blogspot.com 


Then he came upon this big Mexican holding his cock! Ay que bueno! Sadly, they keep calling Foo a guero... frown.

Clang Clang Clang

Foo got to ride this Trolley in San Antonio to get to El Mercado and the Riverwalk. 
The ride was Foo-filled fun.

Don't Get a Big Head

Foo needs to take a lesson from this statue. If you get too big of a head, it will be chopped off and put on a podium in the middle of the street above the Riverwalk in San Antonio. Foo always needs to remember this and keep his ego under control...

That's a Big Cock!

Foo liked this sculpture of a giant rooster in a random yard in San Antonio, Texas. He just wishes he could eat it...

Chances Are... Hope Floats

Foo found this set of bells along the riverwalk in San Antonio that were featured in the movie Hope Floats
The bells hang above this outdoor stage and the audience sits across the river in this amphitheatre. He so wants to perform on this stage! He's been told he plays a mean artifact!

Duck!!!!!!

On the River Walk in San Antonio, Foo found fine feathered friends to play with. It was very exciting. This one's name was Mal. He was happy to get Foo-toed.

River Walk-Ritas

Foo joined Victoria and Jonathan for a refreshing "walkaround" frozen adult beverage before heading to the Riverwalk in San Antonio to see the sights and the ducks! They consequently named the beverage after Foo because he's just that cool.

I Ziegen it Boss!

Even though they say "Only Texans Get it," Foo loves this amber beer!! He thinks he might have to become Texan because it's mmm mmm good.

Believe it or Not...

Foo was walking on air when he stumbled across a Ripley's Believe it or Not location. This large crazy man let Foo get photo time with him, but Foo still doesn't believe in him. 


But Foo was completely mesmerized by the floating water faucet that empties into a barrel of Foo fun!

World's Bestest Foo!

Foo found himself at the Guinness World Records Museum and saw some amazing things! 

First, he got to balance 10 kegs of Guinness on his head.

The he happily played a really big game of ping pong!
