Last year we ran a poll of favorite Spring Break destinations – mountains, golf resorts, big cities, that kind of thing – and the overwhelming winner was beaches. Like turkey on Thanksgiving, I guess there are times when the oldies really are the goldies.
Then again, there are some places you can keep a tradition alive [...]
Welcome back to USA Travel Guide. Two opening thoughts:
Can you believe that hockey legend Wayne Gretzky, of all people, was the first to break the news?
I love John Cena. The man can wrestle, he can act, he can crack a [...]
Let’s face it: we are a sports worshiping country. We watch’em every Sunday, we dress up in special attire, and we celebrate in some of the most famous churches in the world: Wrigley Field, Soldier Field, Fenway Park … … … TD Garden? Okay, so the Garden might not be the most famous arena [...]
If the wilds of central Texas don’t inspire your desire, what about the mountains of Southern California? It’s the peak of ski season in Big Bear Lake, CA, and Valentine’s Day sounds like the perfect excuse to grab your alpines, and your loved one, and hit the slopes.

After two weeks of hearts, roses and other frou-frou crap, I’ve got a hunger for big slabs of slow-cooked meat and voluntarily broken bones. The only place I know to get all that action at once is the 2010 Houston Livestock Show & Rodeo and World’s Championship Bar-B-Que Contest.

Can’t you read? It’s in Vegas!

At USA Travel Guide, we’ve perhaps been a little extravagant with our L.A. advice: fifty-eight dollar bus tours, holidays at Disneyland, a British film festival. So today, we’re going simple and inexpensive.
Which isn’t to say we’re going small. In fact, you can explore a huge chunk of Los Angeles, California coastline for the cost of [...]
The tickets are gone, but it’s not too late to get your hotel rooms in Phoenix, Arizona for the 2010 Fiesta Bowl at University of Phoenix Stadium.*
I let on in the past that I’m no college football expert (or in fact, an expert of any sport unless you count competitive Call of Duty), so we [...]
I can’t believe we skipped right to January’s Rose Bowl and almost missed two eagerly-anticipated bowl games that’ll be tearing up the turf even sooner. Both the Poinsettia Bowl and Holiday Bowl headed for San Diego’s Qualcomm Stadium in the next few weeks, and tickets are still available.
