This is a good place to go there with all kinds of sport legends in history. Also like basketball, golf, football and baseball. I love those cute college mascots.

They have a vast and interesting collection of memorabilia for all kinds of sports, athletes, etc., including the Southwest Conference. Take the time to read some of the information boards that are posted with the exhibits. We especially enjoyed the Nolan Ryan exhibit.They also have a nice gift shop with decent prices. I bought a regulation size Razorback football for only $25.

If you like Texas sports, this should be a bucket list place. They have an amazing collection of artifacts and memorabilia sectioned off each category to its own hall.

Sport fans of all sorts would love walking through here. Great history and memorabilia all over, especially the Nolan Ryan exhibit. Spent about 90 minutes on a self guided tour. $8 admission is fairly cheap, free for active duty military.

Lots of football history of course. The displays were really cool. I liked that they were able to get so many people to donate what are essentially priceless sports memorabilia.If your visiting Waco, this should be one of your stops.

Wonderful place to learn about the history of, not only Texas Sports, but also the people and places around this great State, that have helped to make it happen. The administration were so kind to us as well. They were closing early for an event the day we went, so they charged us half price on the admission fee. Also, they allowed my son to use his college ID,and be recognized as a student. Only wish we would have gotten there earlier,and had more time to enjoy it.

It was okay. Every thing is mostly football, but they have other sports too. It was big and it has a lot of information, but as a volleyball player, I was really disappointed because there was literally nothing about volleyball. They really even had cheerleading, but not volleyball! I left extremely disappointed.

There were some areas that were new and beautiful and other areas in desperate need of a facelift and update. The amount of items and information contained in the displays was informative and impressive. The staff member at the check-in desk was incredibly friendly and welcoming. The regular price would have been fine, but we got an even better deal with the Groupon. Our children were hoping for some more interactive displays and/or introductory videos like we had seen at the Sports hall of Fame in a different state recently

Great little hall of fame. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a decent size, and worth a visit. I took my kids ages 9-4 and they all loved it! So many artifacts and pictures. They also have an interactive exhibit where you can play some sports.

What a beautiful place for a company Christmas party. It’s pretty ingenious that they can use this beautiful place as a venue. Not sure who was catering because that was not good at all. But the place is very nice

Though Im not really into sports the Texas Sports Hall of Fame does have some interesting didplays. So it will keep your attention whether or not you have any interest in sports. They have displays for everything from football ( collegiate and professional) to swimming, golf, and even bull riding. You are bound to find something that interests you.

I have been trying and wanted to visit the TSHoF for a long time and finally made it. I was very impressed how much spots stuff and history is packed into such a small place.

Cool memorabilia from Texas high school, college, and pro legends in every sport. The Hall of Fame for the old Southwest Conference is also housed here. If youre in Waco its worth an hour or so of your time.

Review №31

Must see but some there are some info missing. In the high school football area there is not a list of all State champions. I would think that would be obvious. What about all the other sports across the state.The tennis section was extensive and I learned a lot that I didnt previously know. I liked the old SWC area. It brought back some good memories.Overall a good visit but not many interactive exhibits so kids get bored quickly. I still think it is worth a visit for what is there.

Loved the SWC section. Cowboys room was cool. Numerous lights out in other parts of the hall exhibits. Maybe you should invest in led lights.

Very impressive. The museum is much larger than it appears from the outside. It has a very extensive display of all major sports and info about the Tx. athletes inducted. There is also a large display of each of the schools in the former SW conf. There are a few interactive displays for kids.

This place was awesome. We had the place to ourselves. The only complaint is the lighting needs to be upgraded or at least replace the lights when they go out. Went there last December.

After spending a day in this town, I think its fair to call Waco the meh tourist attraction capital of Texas.Cool memorabilia collection, but the rambling layout and poor curating detract from the otherwise interesting stories that could be told here.There are no Hall of Fame plaques or any other designation that a particular athlete is a Texas Sports Hall of Famer. Jus a series of cases jammed full of shoes and balls - most of which have notes but none of which actually add up to any sort of clear narrative.The Southwest Conference collection is a. Definite bright spot but overall, this place feels like a full scale lost opportunity.
