The #AustinMotel is now a FAR CRY from our heyday in the city.

Staying in one of the pool rooms (circa 2000), drinking a bottle of Zacapa rum on our little patio at 3 am after a concert, a dude repeatedly going from his room to the street (prob dealing drugs). Friendly, we ask if he'd like some rum. He sits down, takes a sip, his nose starts gushing blood then he offers us coke (that's a horrible sales tactic).
