Conway is a lovely town but even with all the success UCA has had in football they don't seem to turn out much to support them.

supposed "best team in state"


I have never heard anyone say anything close to that

BTW, the link that ya’ll keep posting just solidifies his point. NWA games have a higher percentage of fans from central Arkansas than vice versa On top of that, after seeing the attendance numbers that the UofA put out for the last two games vs the Little Rock game, I wouldn’t trust shite they say when it comes to the GSD.

This all coming from a person that thinks all of the games should be in Fayetteville.

Little rock fans drive up and help fill DWRRS.

NWA fans don't drive to little rock to help fill up WMS.

Little Rock has the better fans. They drive for their team. NWA fans won't.

Attendance #s have always been about tickets bought.

Every team does this.

jonesboro state said that had 27k yesterday when in reality they had aroudn 15k.

We sold 60k tickets to the last two games but we were nowhere near that in actual attendance.

The 36k attendance at WMS this season was tickets sold as well. There MIGHT have been 5,000 people there in actuality.

Does WMS still have pissing troughs? I haven't been there in awhile. Real dump of a place, horrible part of town. Well, most of Little Rock is awful so that's pretty much unavoidable.
