The Weekend Preview: Your weekly list of things to watch, eat, do, and buy for October 3rd

It's October. Baseball season is almost over, football season is just kicking off, and this lady is getting a puppy. Your weekend might not be as great as hers, but we've got some other pretty cool stuff for you to do, watch, eat, and buy this weekend:

. Austin City Limits Festival

Friday thru Sunday | Austin, TX

Austin’s most famous festival might be South By South West, but the Austin City Limits Festival gives it a run for its money. This weekend’s lineup includes Eminem, Outkast, Interpol, Childish Gambino, and like a million others. While you’re there, you can also chose from all of Austin’s best food carts, including Frank Sausage & Waffle Fries, mmmpanadas, and Stubb’s Bar-B-Q.

. New York Super Week

Friday thru Sunday, continuing into next week | New York, NY

The week leading up to New York Comic Con has been declared Super Week because there are a lot of super-duper fun events for you to enjoy. Some of the best options are Neil deGrasse Tyson’s Friday night panel with Malcolm Gladwell, Eugene Mirman, and Wyatt Cenac; Saturday’s Laugh Button Live with Gary Gulman and guests; and Sunday’s cat video film festival.

. Gridiron Glory: The Best of the Pro Football Hall of Fame

Opens Friday October 3 | Detroit, MI

The Pro Football Hall of Fame is coming to Detroit’s Henry Ford Museum for a limited time only. Midwesterners will get to bask in the presence of the Vince Lombardi Trophy, Jerry Rice’s record-breaking football, Jim Brown’s jersey, and hundreds of personal artifacts from All-Pro icons. You’ll also get to try out some football drills and wear football equipment. Just going to this exhibit will make you a better athlete! That’s how exercise works, right?

. Survivor’s Remorse

Saturday, 9:00 | Starz

. 23 Blast

Opens in theaters Friday

. Bob's Burgers

Sunday 7:30 | Fox

. Great American Beer Festival

Friday thru Sunday | Denver, CO

More than 10% of America’s craft brews come from the great state of Colorado, and this weekend, our friends in the Mile High City are celebrating the great art of brewing with the country’s largest domestic beer festival. More than 700 breweries are represented at GABF , which also features panel discussion about brewing, beer history, and food pairing. And if you’re hungry, don’t worry: the American Cheese Society will be there with over 20 different cheeses. 

. The Derek Jeter Sandwich

Carnegie Deli | New York, NY

Jeter’s career is over, but he lives on in our hearts, and now in our tummies. New York’s Carnegie deli has created the extremely large Derek Jeter sandwich, which pays tribute to the Yankees shortstop in several ways. If you’re worried about dislocating your jaw, feel free to try one of these other athlete-inspired sandwiches from around the country. 

. The Hammer

Turner Field | Atlanta, GA

A fried-chicken sandwich on waffle bread? Sign us up. The original version from the Braves was topped with apple-smoked bacon, pepper-jack cheese, and other delicious goodies, but it seems to be absent from the current Braves’ concession food lineup (maybe too many heart attacks at the stadium?). Fortunately, Twitter used Tony Notarianni has a recipe so you can make one at home.

. Eli Manning Dislikes T-Shirts

$16 | etsy.com

If you’ve been on the internet at all in the past year, you’ve almost certainly seen Twitter comedian @RobFee’s ‘Eli Manning Dislikes’ series. Now, you can commemorate the perennially-confused-looking QB on your chest with Fee’s t-shirts, which include Eli Manning dislikes such as “VROOM Sticks (Vacuum),” “Meow Dogs (Cats),” and “Ouchy Gregs (?).”

. Forza Horizon 2

Starting from $49.99 | GameStop.com

When Forza Horizon came out in 2012, critics went nuts. It was one of the most comprehensive car racing games available, with a huge racing world and a wide variety of cars to choose from. The developers at Playground Games have only made it better with Forza Horizon 2, with more detail, more cars, and more scenery. You’ll drive a selection of over 200 cars on the Mediterranean coast, amassing Skill points and conquering Bucket List challenges. All the reviews so far have been favorable, and this is a much cheaper way to have a mid-life crisis than actually buying a sportscar.
