It's hot, it's getting hotter and I've already started ready people's Facebook posts about their air conditioners breaking due to the strain. So what's a miserable gent to do on a hot summer day? Well, I have some ideas for you.

Here are the top 11 ways to cool off in Lubbock this summer. Enjoy...and try to not get arrested.


  1. It is illegal to swim in the City's Playa lakes, but is water ballet really swimming?
  2. Instead of having your tea glass constantly refilled, tell your server you'd like all your tea at one time in a bucket, then put your feet in it.
  3. Take a smoke break in the walk-in at Whataburger
  4. Ask the guys selling newspapers on the corner, "how much to just fan me with that for a bit?"
  5. Seek whatever shade you can get behind the head of one of those big haired Texas women.
  6. Many city parks have drinking fountains, which double as a great place to pour cool water over your nuts.
  7. Tell your girlfriend she's getting fat. Enjoy the brisk wind created by her leaving.
  8. With temperatures reaching over 100 outdoors, consider moving  your next camping trip to Center Court of the South Plains Mall.
  9. Enjoy a tasty ice cream treat. And by enjoy, we mean have sex with it.
  10. Heat rises, so now is a good time to check on those bodies in the cool of your crawlspace.
  11. Experience the miracle of condensation by having your dog lick you in front of a fan.
