It's Arkansas


No, Joe Namath is not Italian, he's Hungarian, they of the Goulash. Goulash is not Italian, I'll just add in for those who've been in prison for 55 years or so, or in a coma for that long. It's Hungarian. I like it, but it's not Italian.


Harry Rex Vonner is like 1% Italian, and my BGFF piggilicious is even more than that.

There's an excellent demographic of Italians in Tontitown, Arkansas (Springdale) and Conway County. Others elsewhere I'm sure, and my Arkansas friends will make those known to you.

Tontitown is home to the annual Tontitown Grape Festival, an August event that precedes the excitement for Razorback football. The Italian food at this festival is world class. This August will be the 123rd Tontitown Grape Festival.



1BigTigerFan, you are cordially invited to the Tontitown Grape Festival, because those baws in T-town found out you had a hand in whacking Billy Bats. So come on up and we've got you a meeting with some boys who want to induct you into the secret club, supposedly

Arkansas also has, per the SPLC, the largest group of active klansmen with 1,500 members. That should be around 1,000 government informants working at the federal, state, city, and county level. And 400 LARPers, journalist, folks looking to sell books, etc…. And 390 fake keyboard klansmen. The 10 actual white supremacy believers run the Clinton library.

I don't think you realize how many Italians are in Louisiana. There are also a ton in the MS Delta and in Bham. I've never really even heard of there being Italians in Arky.

Birmingham has a very large community of Italian and Greek folks.

Alabama football has enjoyed their athletic exploits in the past. Johnny Musso for one.

Is it wrong that upon reading the title of this post, I also immediately thought of Big Dan?

We're technically Sicilian, but all the same haha. There is also a large Lebanese pop here too in Bham.

True South had a pretty good episode on the Birmingham food scene and the influence from the Italian, Greek, and Lebanese immigrants.

Kind of a wild list to just be throwing out there. Just your expert opinion?

Not sure what the breakdown is but I do know that College Station and Bryan are filled with a number Sicilian families, my family being one of them. We've been here going on 5 generations now.
