It's much, much easier to get to Fayetteville now than it used to be and we'll be adding Jerry World back in the rotation. Think if we had 2 in WMS and 1 in Jerry World....it kind of sucks for the season ticket holders who pay a lot of money.
That makes sense. How long does it take you to get from where you live to Fayetteville on a game day?

I don't want to take anecdotal evidence based on a few people as gospel so I'm curious as to what the feeling seems to be in Little Rock and the surrounding area about the move.


Age is the biggest divider on the issue. People over 35 tend to be much more strongly 'keep the games in LR'-- they grew up with the biggest games largely being played in WMS.

The under 35 crowd isn't blinded by sentiment, and while many regret it, they acknowledge the inevitability of all the games returning to campus, and often the necessity of it.

About 3 hours but it's easy driving. It used to be through the damn mountains and take damn near 4 1/2.

4 hours. 2 to LR. I'd rather go to Fayetteville any day of the week.
