University Printing

Foo made it all the way through Austin and even drove by the university without really stopping for any photos because he was just really, really hungry and tired from a long day on the road, but when he sat down for dinner, he saw this poster, so he did get a picture after all.

Wise Owled Building

Apparently the architect of this building in Austin was denied entrance to the local University of Texas. Instead, he went to Rice University in Houston, where the mascot is the owl. Upon making it big and being hired by in Austin to design this building, he decided to make it look like an owl from a certain point of view as a joke... Foo waited for it to take flight, but he couldn't stay long because he was getting hungry.

Robo Longhorn

Foo had heard that Austin was the town of big longhorn cattle, and a university dedicated to them as well, but he did not expect to see bionic composite beasts roaming the ranches of the city.
