I was there two years ago and saw LSU get swept so I enjoyed today's game very much.

Love sitting out in the Hog Pen to watch batting practice and drink some beer. Visited with some very nice Hog fans out there.

I posted last night about our getting selected for the Sports Clips front row seats. Loved watching the game from there even though the Hogs ran away with it.

Today, my son decides to enter the Arvest Fan Fly Ball Frenzy and he got selected.

Missed his first fly ball, crowd went "aww". Caught the second one back peddling, took a tumble but came up with the catch. Crowd gave him a nice big cheer. He caught the last one and ended up winning the 12-pack of Pepsi, Razorback sunglasses and a signed Dave Van Horn baseball.

With LSU's win it was a hell of a trip for our family. Had a great time at Fayetteville. Hogs really stepped up this weekend. Hope it continues for you guys.

Second catch was pretty awesome. Glad he held onto the ball and they gave him all the prizes.

I've been to Baum many times as an LSU fan and wearing an Arkansas shirt. Getting treated differently that's for sure. But not like we do at the football games.

I've always enjoyed going to Baum Stadium. Great venue and great memories. I remember when out past 3rd base it was still a hill and not seats and all the kids(including myself then) would roll down it.

LSU and Arkansas have the best two venues in college baseball that's for sure.

Sounds like you and your family had a great weekend at Baum. Glad you all enjoyed it but kinda wish you would have left a little more disappointed with the outcome of the series.

Glad you enjoyed Fayetteville, Hog Trolls aside here on the Rant, in my 3 years living in NW, Arkansas Hog fans have been gratious and extremely friendly.
