Bar/Place to watch the UT/OU Game in Dallas

[WhySoSerious??]

What is a good place to watch the game close to the cotton bowl? We would like to goof around at the state fair before and after the game but I'm not familiar with any of the bars etc around there. Any suggestions. Prefer a longhorn friendly place. Thank you in advance.

As you walk from Parry Ave into the fairgrounds, going along the reflecting pool to the Museum, turn left and you will see the giant stage at the end of the street. Just before getting there, turn right, walk about 30 yards to steps entering the building on your right. There is a concession there that sells funnel cakes, nachos, beer, etc. The lady has two TVs (one big screen) in there that shows the game, as well as other games after ours. She has been there for at least 30 years, maybe closer to 50. You will need to get there before 10 to get a good seat close to the screen. She has lots of tables, the ones closest to the TV are long tables. You are about 150 yards from The Cotton Bowl.

Not sure there is anywhere else around Fair Park I would want to go.

Better yet,
Walk towards the big stadium like structure inside the fair at around game time. It is just down the way from the pavillion. Ask someone in orange to help you if you can't find it.
Walk up to a ticket taker and had them $20.
Go inside and watch the game live.
