Funny Friday's ~ Only in Austin ~ El Arroyo ~ 11.15.2024

By
Real Estate Agent with Coldwell Banker Realty ~ 512.750.6899

El Arroyo stands as an iconic Austin gem, renowned for crafting the finest hand-squeezed margaritas and serving up delectable Black Angus beef tacos, among a plethora of other Tex-Mex delights, since 1975!

Situated at the corner of West 5th and Campbell, this local favorite boasts a quirky marquee that captures attention. Daily, the billboard transforms with a fresh pun—spanning the spectrum of wit and humor—making it a delightful fixture at the heart of Austin's culinary scene.

El Arroyo invites you to contribute your own puns on their website, with full permission to showcase them on their marquee. It's a quintessential "Keep Austin Weird" tradition that resonates with the spirit of our vibrant city!

The laughter doesn't stop there—they share these puns on Instagram, drawing in admirers like our very own Myrl JeffcoatKathy Streib, and chef Endre Barath, Jr.! Notably, Debe Maxwell, CRS, is also in on the fun. In a world where a daily chuckle is a necessity, following El Arroyo's Instagram for the latest pun is a shared joy.

Wishing you endless smiles! Happy Friday!!

Good morning Dorie. As for the first one, I would be wealthy. As for two, no chance, ha, ha. And for number three I have been in that group for years. Keep them coming. Enjoy your day.

I would be a very rich man if I could invoice people for wasting my time, haha.  I could do it, but I highly doubt they would pay the invoice, haha.

All great funnies today. I think every generation can relate to #3. We all think our music is the best, right?

I look at that first one and immediately bring to mind a buyer that worked me and George Souto over for almost 2 years and when she bought, we were both ignored.

Oh No!! That is awful! Then #1 definitely applies Ed Silva, 203-206-0754

Hello Dorie and the first one would work for me,  I had a gal call me about her brother home since he past away.  It would be a fix and flip and been there 3 times and met a engineer there to look at some of the problem.  Now she when dark for three weeks.

Hi Dorie- Happy Friday!!!  I loved all of them and can relate to them as well. I especially loved the last one.

I can relate to the third sign, Dorie.  They simply don't make music like they once did.  I still remember going downstairs to watch the Ed Sullivan Show when Elvis would come on.  We didn't get our TV until 1957.
