I'm going. Flying into Little Rock from Charleston. My parents are driving up from New Orleans to pick me up. We are all excited about it.

I'm excited to see the campus and stadium. I'm looking forward to checking out Dickson Street and honestly, being in Northwest Arkansas in November should be bliss.

I can't say that there is a thing that I am not looking forward to.

I visited Fayetteville earlier this month and didn't find the campus to be any more "torn up" than LSU when it came to construction.

Great town and campus and I loved the Ozarks. Hope to get back for the game in Nov.

I'm trying real hard to find tix @ a reasonable price (I'm not OT rich). I'd love to drive down, drop the kids off in Alma (Grandparents) and catch the game. Dickson St should be popping all night.

LSU fans - you won't be disappointed. Fayetteville is great.

I'm sure they're not too fond of an extra 5-6 hours in total driving time.


As opposed to having to sit in War Memorial? They won't mind the extra hours. Besides, they'll need the additional drive time scenery to get having to pass thru Pine Bluff out of their minds.

They'll see a different part of Arkansas and I think it will be appreciated by my fellow LSU fans.

Always enjoyable to watch opposing teams' drunk fans struggle to get to the stadium! We might need to run a special shuttle picking up LSU fans


Miz Piggy, as far as functional drunks go, we set the curve for the rest of the SEC.

baseball stadium is bad arse and new additions to the football stadium look good

Just be glad you can use 540. Everyone used to take the Pig Trail or 71.

once you get past little rock, the scenery is pretty cool so that helps

Bring warm clothes, the weather in NWA can be unpredictable. I would also start doing some cardio every day so you can acclimate to the altitude quicker when you get here.

Is George's Majectic Lounge still around?

I saw Ray Wylie Hubbard there a while back and I remember it being pretty awesome. I just happened to be in Fayetteville for work (well I actually worked in Bentonville but I stayed in Fayetteville on Friday night because it was the only SEC town at the time that I had never been to) and saw he was playing there and went to check it out.

I would recommend it it was a pretty cool place.

Come on. Is Pine Bluff all that different from what Louisianans are used to?

Most of your fans would disagree with that. Arkansas' an outdoors man's dream. For the South, anyway.

There are pretty similar minus the drive-thru liquor stores that offer "swamp juice". By the way, that stuff is awesome.

looking forward to beating the frick out of arky in their own stadium.

not looking forward to leaving the stadium after these uneducated fricks watch their team get an arse whipping.....I would imagine most are packing outside the stadium.

Feel free to stay home.

Win/Lose - it'll be a good game, and fun will be had by all.

I really don't see it.....at the end of the year...arky will be looking for their new coach with a lame duck coach in place, and a season gone bad. I can see an ugly game, if you are an arkansas fan.

You're just incapable of being anything other than a troll, aren't you?

I almost wish you'd move to Baton Rouge if you don't already live there, but I wouldn't wish that on anyone right now.
