I wont argue against you. I am a central arkansas homer, but even I agree. But you get butt hurt about it. The crowds are fine. The stadium is just shitty

The crowds are not fine.

47k fans is a fricking embarrassment.

They need to build some shite on campus.



Stephens donated $48 million to the University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences in 2002

$20.4 million for a basketball arena at UALR

Since both are part of the University of Arkansas system it is not like they have not given dough.

I'm referring to the fact that it should be sold out and have a waiting list to justify playing in an off-campus stadium minus 23k seats.

Instead, we get 6k empties. Its a joke. Those are Vanderbilt numbers, and that shite drags down our attendance numbers overall.

They donate shite to LITTLE ROCK.

UAMS is also littered with the names of NWA philanthropists who aren't of the same selfish mold.

If Mizzou disowned all of our donors that donated to lesser schools/causes, we'd be in a bad situation.

Sometimes people donate to keep the lower level people in their organization happy, it's not personal.

I watched that game on ESPN3 and that's the first time I ever saw that stadium. I lol'd for like 5 minutes strait. By far the shitiest stadium in the SEC. Why don'y you all email the AD or fly banners to rid games of that shite hole?

I said it a couple times in the game thread, but that crowd seemed loud as hell for an off campus game against an FCS school that was beating your team.

I'm not talking shite, but I was impressed. I expected it to be a graveyard when I tuned in to see the potential loss.


Here's the deal.

WMS is old and needs a lot of work to favorably compare to all the modern stadiums built or upgraded in the past 20 years. This is an especially big deal in the SEC, where stadium fanaticism has just become silly. Most, if not all, of the games should all be played in Fayetteville, since there's not many good reasons left for playing them in Little Rock.

However, the elitist hillbillies in NWA (yes, I'm serious) are trying to make it a regional war within the state that the university represents. So, they make up stuff to paint the rest of the state in a bad light, but especially central Arkansas and Little Rock. They even boycott games in LR, so they can say that games never sell out there, even though they always did before, and even though they never have regularly in Fayetteville. Basically, they pretend to be elitist and act like idiots, while failing to support their university and their state.

But even if WMS sells out, it's still 20,000 less people than in DWRRS.

Arkansas is my least favorite SEC program. Angry little scrubs, IMO

Please STFU.

Yes, it has people who went to school at the University of Arkansas, but that doesn't make them from NWA.

And, even though I'm in Little Rock, I don't agree with the Stephens family, so stop acting as if everyone does.

They had to be in order to rattle Samford's QB... Their offense was really clicking at times.
