Does the venue or the sport affect your preference?

I ask because I generally love anything played in Barnhill but it may be because I am old and like the atmosphere there when I was younger. Curious to see what the younger posters think about venue as well?

I don't consider myself to be "young" but the most recent event I attended in Barnhill was a speech by Anderson Cooper several years ago. I have almost no attachment to that venue and would be fine if they bulldozed it.

1. Baum

2. Bud Walton

3. Razorback Stadium

The order may change when the renovations to Razorback Stadium are completed. It's just too much of a PITA to get around the stadium, both inside and outside, as it has been set up.

Because no one else will say so and it was good fun... Roller Derby.

Yes we have moved past the days of the Arkansas Killbillies but its still a fun way to spend some time.

1. Razorback Stadium-memories of good (and bad) games throughout the years beginning when I saw Bill McClard kick at that time a NCAA record 60 yard field goal. And it was cold and windy (imagine that).

2. Barnhill Arena-again many memories including camping out for basketball tickets in an era where Razorback basketball was actually good. The Hog Wild Band and bourbon in plastic cups which occupied the floor are things that stand out to me. I even attended some women's basketball games there.

3. Various venues where the Signa Nu Relays & similar frat events were held-to witness the spectacle of college girls being paraded around in bikinis until some SJWs determined that such events were degrading to women and eliminated the contests.

Bud Walton for me.

Texas and OU games back with Pelphrey.

Michigan game in 2012 I think.

Auburn game way back in 98.

Last time we beat UK there with Archie.

Doesn't get any better than a packed out loud Bud for me.
