I remember mid 90's my sophmore year, we thought we were going to be really good. Had future 1 yr Hog Tony Lockhart and our coaches thought it would be a great idea to step up our first game competition. Instead of playing the easy local wins we always had they took us to LH and we got the ever living crap beat out of us.

How many gift cards did WMS give you for buying a ticket?
I bucked the system...cause I'm kindof a big deal and people just give me stuff
I don't think I've ever paid for a ticket to WMS...including my first game against Houston w/ Andre Ware

WMS is a dump but the tailgating sure is fun there. You also get a lot of "unique" people out that wouldn't be caught dead up in Fayetteville on gameday.
My friends from out of state who have tailgated at both stadiums always say that WMS is a representation of what they imagined in their head would be the setting if you got a bunch of Arkansans together and got them drunk. However, they all left surprised after experiencing a Fayetteville tailgate in how "non-hickish" it is and also how tame and boring it is.
But yeah. Everything about Little Rock games is pretty shitty. Shitty stadium. Shitty beer. Shitty opponents. Shitty stadium turnout. Not really sure why it is such a big deal to some people to keep it there.

The biggest thing shitty about NWA is some of the people, who like to talk about how shitty everything outside of NWA is.
F 'em.
F 'em.

Sorry you are not fortunate enough to live in NWA.
Have you considered moving?

There are also "some" people outside of NWA who realize how ridiculous it is to keep having games that don't even get sold out at a shitty stadium 2 1/2 hours from the school's actual campus. And there are some who don't.
Look, I get where you are coming from. You are frustrated with the fact that there probably won't be Razorback games played at WMS much longer. I get that. A small group of people will have to drive an extra hour or two to go see the Hogs play their yearly rent-a-win. I get that as well.
However, IMO, you seem to be venting your frustration on the situation onto this "I'm from NW Arkansas so I am holier than thou" facade that you've concocted in your head. Don't get me wrong. There probably are some people from NW Arkansas that think it is the best place to live in Arkansas, and there would be a plethora of viable reasons that they could use as ammunition. There are also probably some people who live in Magnolia who think it is the best place to live in Arkansas. And Little Rock. And West Memphis (well, maybe like 2). So are they bad, evil people out to get everyone else because they love where they live? Of course not!
You might complain that it isn't fair that you have to drive alllll the way up to NW Arkansas to see a game, but I would argue that it is even MORE unfair to force students who PAY to go to school there to have to drive 2 1/2 hours from campus in order to see a game.

Hmm, I do think that mentality exists for some.
That said, my opinion on the actual subject at hand is I'm fine with moving them all to Fayetteville. If for no other reason than to end this convo once and for all.
Go hogs - can we all hug it out?

Through this whole thread I've honestly thought you were probably trolling.
But now I'm starting to think you may just be serious.
If you are serious, might I suggest you go here where your point of view would be more readily accepted.
