Update: You may be here looking for Boise State vs. Fresno State football tickets for the 2025 game in November in Boise. You can find them through Ticketmaster here and searching the game. The rest of this post is about an old game in Fresno.
I am seeing that the Fresno State vs Boise State football game tickets are sold out for Saturday (Nov 4th).
If you don’t know a guy that is trying to unload their tickets, there is the legit side of the secondary market. My top pick on where to still get Boise State at Fresno State football tickets for Saturday:
Editor’s note: Since this game is history, you may be here looking for current Fresno or Boise games. For tickets to a Fresno State game or a Boise State game, go through Ticketmaster here.
Good luck. Make sure to get there early enough to tailgate.
It’s always a good time when the Broncos and Bulldogs play. Keep that Bulldog spirit up in your head.
Game predictions:
*Disclosure: TicketNetwork is an affiliate of mine so I might make a buck or so if you end up buying tickets. You could try Ticketmaster too I suppose, I am just not a fan.
In case you didn’t know, the “Bullard” Fosters Freeze on Palm (if you’re reading this after August 31st) is now closed. It’s being forced to make way for a Starbucks.
Thanks for all the food and memories since the 1980s (for me anyway).
I shall miss your fries. Corndogs. Milkshakes. But most of all, my evening runs with my daughter to get a Twister and a hot fudge sundae (no nuts), when we were a little bored.
We can debate what our biggest festivals are some other time. But it might be Fresyes Fest. Biggest or not, I PLAN on going (I don’t get out much, so I am cautious with my optimism of leaving the house for something).
Fresyes Fes is this Saturday. It is centered around the Brewery District. Streets will be blocked. Beer will be drank. Music will be played. Tacos will be eaten.
Here are five things I plan to do, maybe you can to:
I have been mulling over this one for some time. What is the best steak in Fresno?
Yes, we are the taco capital, have the best Mexican food breakfast spots, love tri-tip, and chicken sandwiches are everywhere (although I think that is an every-city thing).
But us red meat-eatin’ Fresnans can still like some straight-up steak too.
Right now, my favorite is the tepanyaki filet at Edo-ya. A bit of a different choice, I know. It’s just so soft and fucking perfect. And they have that spicy sauce too.
But there are a lot of perfect steaks in Fresno. And sadly I have not even had a quarter of them.
I would love to try all the steaks in Fresno but I don’t think I could. It would be a lot of work. And money.💵
I suppose if you had a large food budget and the time and energy to go out and eat all the time, a person could do this. But I am sadly not this person. Yet.
That person could exist though. There is somebody rich enough in this town to have the time and money to try every freaking steak in Fresno, but just doesn’t do it. For shame.
Yeah, well, anyway, I went to ‘Fresno Twitter’ to get the vibe. To see what they think about the steaks. And it seems I need to try a steak from the Lime Light:
Lime light!!! The wood fire ribeye and filet are awesome!!!
I am sure I have had a steak at the Lime Lite but it has been many many years since, so I don’t even remember. Many people picked it, so I am excited to go back and try.
Other places brought up in the Twitter thread I totally agree with and want to try again:
Manhattan’s
Yosemite Ranch
Richard’s
Max’s
Flemings (chain)
Ruth’s Chris (chain)
Some I need to try that are also recommend:
Annex Kitchen
Cracked Pepper
Cosmopolitan
Not only does “Cosmo’s” and Richard’s have a Craig Scharton endorsement, it has an endorsement from THE Simon Majumbar:
Side note: I truly have no obligation to bring up Clovis Taint District trash but some place called “13” or something, got brought up a fucking lot.
I honestly never heard of it. I will not go there unless strong-armed. I don’t go to Clovis for steaks because Clovis sucks.
If I were to go to a Fresno County place for steak though, I hear Cattleman’s and Harris Ranch are good suggestions.
Hope this helps you decide your next Fresno steak adventure. If you have any recos for a good Fresno steak, please leave us all a comment.
Last month-ish, Little Leaf Tea at Palm & Bullard, moved next door into their bar area so they could make room for Kuppa Joy to move into their old space.
I like how they moved over their sign to the front of their window. Good re-use idea and it looks cool.
They have 1/3 of the bar now their tea area and left the rest of the bar alone.

The tea is still good and you get it just as quick (maybe even a little quicker) than you did before.
As far as the bar, they still have a cozy neighborhood bar vibe – a good spot for an after work drink or a leisurely walk over.
Oh, and they have food too that I somehow have never tried. ✌️🫖🧋
