How bad is the drive from Bentonville on gamedays? Should I expect delays etc?

Thanks for your answers and I look forward to finally seeing NW Arkansas.

Traffic will be good early but shite after the game. Especially going North

I'm planning on doing the touristy thing after the game and seeing Dickson street etc.. so hopefully it'll clear out by then.

How early would you recommend getting to campus? I was thinking like 10:30.

Should be easy traffic flow at that time. It'll pick up around noon

If you're heading to Dickson after you ought to arrive at or a little before noon, park up there and eat at Grub's or where ever pre-game....then walk thru campus to the stadium. Very easy 10 min walk, basically puts you right at the north endzone parking lot when you reach the stadium. After you can walk back to Dickson eat dinner and let traffic clear and mosey on back to Bentonville (melting, of course).

It is going to rain, so that will probably impact your plans some.

If you are coming around 10:30 to campus, traffic on 49 from Bentonville shouldn't be anything terrible.

You should be fine at 10:30. I might leave a bit earlier than that if it rains, especially if you're going to grab lunch somewhere. Enjoy!

Eh, I don't mind the rain. My wife does though.


Hopefully it tapers off by kickoff.


Thanks for all y'all's help. Just passed lake nuclear hog. Loving the drive so far.

Just wait until you take the actual Fayeteville exit and it starts to open up about halfway open
