While the last decade or so has been very favorable for the TCU football and baseball programs, the Frogs hadn't TRULY arrived until this weekend...and I don't mean the national title the Horned Frog rifle team brought home. On my way back from Austin yesterday, I stopped at the Czech Stop in West, TX to indulge myself in a kolache or two- jalapeno, sausage and cheese. Delicious.When I went to fetch myself a bottle of authentic Czech Stop bottled water, I walked through the aisle that is stocked with all of the cheesy college merchandise. In the past, it's been all Longhorn, Aggie and Red Raider-oriented. But then a splash of purple caught my eye- TCU koozies. It's not a lot- in fact, it's still less than what Baylor's got available- but for TCU to gain the approval of a true Lone Star cultural icon like the Czech Stop, I'm more than happy with the start.
So the next time you're cruising up or down I-35 and stop in for your Eastern-European baked goods fix, be sure to plop down a few more dollars for some TCU merchandise to let them know they were wise to stock it.

I usually hate T Shirt fans as a rule, but if they got their T shirt at the Czech Stop, I'd have to let it slide.
I prefer Gerik's Ole Czech bakery (other side of the freeway) myself, but maybe I'll have to go to the Czech Stop now.
