Yeah man I go to school out there and we started a car gtg out at sonci on tuesday nights for the f-body guys out there in the spring semester. There are allot of good looking f-bods, mustangs and unfortunately ricers as well. You'll see us around town
As far as the school and everything like that. Greek life is a BIG deal out there and most of the parties are associated with them. But its not necessary to join tho. All I can say is I hope you can handle your alchol man!
What dorm are you stayin in?

Brian,
I live very close to Nac. and go to SFA. Like H/C LS6Z said, we started a meet this past spring, at first it was F-Bodys and then grew into alot of Mustangs. (which was ok) but then we started having every different type of truck, suv, bikes, ricers and what ever else. The owner of the Sonic was happy and offered us discounts on food. But we need to see what we can do this fall. I like the idea of changing the meeting location... We'll have to try that.
Later

. I grew up in that area, but ran away as soon as possible. What to do...drink heavily and enjoy the fact that SFA is like 3 females to 1 male and lots of them fine with nothing to do either...except drink and explore male anatomy.
Oh, and if you get tired of that, just hit any of the smaller local towns within a 100 mile radius. Girls will go nuts seeing a new car cruising and you'll be pulled over by some 17yo hot blonde that wants to show you how much she cares.
God, I wish I was 18 again.

Brian,
Just be easy when your pulling in and out of stores, gas stations, etc. Nac. is the oldest town in Texas and the streets sometime show it. But I haven't had any problems with my LT's hitting.
Are you starting as a Freshman? What courses are you taking?
SFA has been undergoing alot of construction over the past year or so and if your going to be around for a while, your'll get to enjoy the new Rec Center their building. I think it will open in summer 07.

Man that's nice to hear! I drive hour and a half to get to the nearest strip where i currently live. And I know where Diboll is cause I got a ticket there on the way home from fish camp. And yes I am starting as a freshmen. And No I don't know how I got into Lumberjack Village as a fish either.

Hell, I don't know too much about the college life..(parties, greek life, dorms, etc.) I'm a senior.. but im 29, married, with two kids, so I don't get out much. Just every now and then.
I do know that people like to drive up and down north street, showing off their rides/bikes, but you'll have a bunch of High school kids mixed in as well. For the clubs/bars.. Anex/Bullfrogs, Sports Shack, and Banita Creek.
You also, have Lake Nac. with is ok for fishing and skiing, and theres always Golf, Woodland Hills golf course out of 59 south. If you have a 4-wheeler or ATV theres Shiloh Ridge in Alto. http://www.shilohridge.com/

What's up man. I'll be returning to SFA for my second year this thursday. If you get to know people and go out every once and a while you'll have a good time. Greek life is pretty big in Nac. If you haven't had orientation or jack camp, those are great ways to get to know people. ANyways, hit up the rush parties and have a good time. I'll shoot you a PM when my fraternity throws a badass shindig. Honestly, ALL of the streets suck. I had my coilovers set pretty low and scraped alot. However, they are repairing many streets, and SFA is growing as a whole. I'll be in Steen Hall, let me know if you need anything.
