The Guy Expo hits the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston November 6-8. It’s all about guys and it’s all in one spot. We’ll have beer, chicken wings and chicks at the Hooters November-fest beer garden. We’ll have Fox Sports Houston, fiery foods, home improvement gear, pro sports teams, a NASCAR race car and a tricked-out garage. Not to mention contests, prizes and autographed sports memorabilia.
Houston is the second city to host the event; it debuted in Saint Paul, Minnesota. It caters to the guy’s guy and there’s nothing wimpy or soft spoken about it. It aims to be fun, loud, entertaining and slightly irresponsible. Want proof? The Almost-Darwin Award goes to the guy with the best story about the way he almost died.

The Guy Expo organizers are a group of fried food-eating sports fans who came up with the idea when they realized expos for just about everything existed – except one that brought all things guy-related together. “Guys have all dabbled in home improvement, envied their neighbor’s grills and wanted bigger, better electronics,” says Suckow. “We wanted to give guys a glimpse of the coolest stuff we could find.”
The Expo runs Friday, November 6th from 5:00 p.m. to 10:00 p.m. and Saturday, November 7th from 10:00 a.m. to 10:00 p.m. and Sunday, November 8th from 11 a.m. to 5:00 p.m. at the George R. Brown Convention Center. Tickets are $8 for adults, free for kids 12 and under. Police, fire and military get in free, along with anyone wearing an Elvis jumpsuit.
I wonder if I am man enough to attend?
