Some would say UT Football is a religion so this would be it's chapel. UT games & tailgating are legendary, but if you're not interested, avoid campus at all cost or you'll get trapped in traffic.
Locals refer to this as Nascar Golf, not certain why but if you're looking for a fun afternoon outside swinging a club with a cooler of beer and maybe dodging a few balls this is your spot. No glass.

Mini-Golf with a cooler. This local legendary mini-golf course allows beer coolers. Play can be slow and you will likely run into a few tipsy college students but it makes for an entertaining time.

The Congress Avenue bridge houses the largest bat pop in N America. 30 min +/- sunset they set out into the night sky to rid Austin of bugs. Quite a sight but can be smelly. Just look for the crowd.
