I'm guessing it will be less than 65K sold and maybe 60k max butts in seats.

Anyone want to sell their tickets? Thinking about going... haven't seen us play at Jerryworld since 2012 Cotton Bowl.

I don't know about attendance, but I went a few years ago and those Arkansas boys love to get drunk and do drugs

Did someone say get drunk and do drugs?

Going to be down quite a bit. Tickets on Stubhub are about 2/3 of usual prices for this game. This will be one of those games where you can walk up and buy pretty good seats from someone for less than face before the game.

Wish I could go. Brother lives in DFW. Went to the 2015 game and had a BLAST.
Contrary to popular opinion, I love playing in JerryWorld.

So do I. The 50/50 tailgating experience is actually pretty cool and the game is in Texas every year.
And as an added bonus, Wally world is right next to the stadium.
You'll never run out of tailgating essentials like beer and drugs.Posted on 9/18/17 at 4:26 pm to Dr RC
I'd be shocked if more than 50k showed up. I'm gonna go tailgate and see if any scalpers want to get $50 for a pair of tickets. If I don't have any takers I will happily walk back to my cooler full of beer and keep my money.
A&M tickets are a buyers market this year.
I too enjoy the neutral site game in Arlington. It's nice to have an Aggie game so close to home every year. And I don't really have any interest in going to Hog Town.

Made the trip a few years ago and it was a great time. One of the best I have been on. Bars were great. Watched WVU beat Baylor during the day. Tailgating was fantastic and we had plenty of invites as we walked through the tents.
Peronally I would rather make the drive and weekend out of it in Arkansas. Nothing going on at or around Jerryworld. Just a stadium off the highway with a Pappadeaux and a crappy Texmex joint.

ive never been but have heard nothing good from friends about the arkansas fans that make the trip. Corey Brooks, former A&M pitcher, is a bartender in dallas and was on a reality show where he talked about how much he hated "Arkansas Weekend" cause they show up with fake IDs and credit cards and leave the bar with the bill + no tip obviously.

Fayetteville is awesome. Way more fun to go to than Dallas in a soulless NFL stadium.

Sounds about right. We tailgated at Jerryworld last year and those Arkansas people would stop by, make small talk, and ask for beer. It was like clockwork. Their only goal was to score beer after theirs ran out. The worst part is that they were picky about it too! They would refuse Natty light and move on to the next tailgate hoping to get something better. We purposely bought that shite beer to give out but Arkansas fans weren't having it (that's not to say there were a few trashy Arky fans who were happy to get whatever alcohol they could get)
Not only are they cheap, but they have a taste for finer things. Quite a combination

It's still a soulless NFL stadium in Texas.
Advantage A&M!

I've been 4 times and never had a problem with Arkansas fans

Good thing this never happens at every sporting event.

I've never had a problem with any opposing fans of any school sans some overly drunk LSU fans.
For the most part we're a decent crowd like every other fan base, until you go to a LR game then you can sit back and watch the Hog on Hog violence on the golf course.

Been to both venues to see the Ags play Arky.
Fayetteville is very nice and their fans are cool to hang out with. Enjoyed it up there.
But not as much as I enjoyed JerryWorld.
