Longhorns,
We’re all familiar with the Texas hot heat that washes over us 9 out of the 12 months of the year. What is the best remedy? Why, it’s a glistening blue pool at a really cool apartment complex. That’s why we’ve identified the Best Pools in West Campus — so that you can stave off the heat and feel refreshed instead of like Spongebob on land with that pirate.
Keep in mind though, you have to actually live in these complexes to take part…hint hint…wink wink.
