STFU you soft arse bitch. It’s a football stadium, not a luxury resort. All you need is a seat and a field. War Memorial is one of the best environments for big games with a rich history.

War Memorial was trending on Twitter too. It was that bad.

At this point DWR is orders of magnitude better than War Memorial. Unless we're playing in state schools, we should play in our far superior home stadium

War Memorial WAS a good environment. Everyone hangs onto something Mike Leach said in 1998 or the South Carolina game from the early 2000’s. Oh, the Miracle on Markham WHICH WAS 20 YEARS AGO. If it’s so damned important to you that games remain there, fricking anti up and donate to renovating that piece of garbage. Otherwise, shut your arse and be happy you’re allowed to visit one of the nicest stadiums in the SEC in NWA.

It’s a crumbling pile of shite that absolutely nobody takes care of.

So why don’t you stop being a soft arse bitch and stop living in the past. Get Ron Desantis’ dick out of your mouth and get on the RFK train junior.

I've said it before and I'll say it again — the college football world will stop treating us like a small time program the minute we stop acting like a small time program.

Playing a yearly home game 200 miles from campus cuz nostalgia reasons is exactly the type of small time bullshite I'm talking about.

It’s absolute horse hockey to ever play a game in that stadium again.

You’ve gotta really feel for the kids from WCU too. They were probably all excited about playing an SEC team, and then they walked into WMS and probably thought, wtf.

44k showed up for a season opener that would’ve drawn 65-70k in NWA. The UA would collect on all concessions and also had plenty of water available.

If only half the capacity shows up, how does this happen?

The place is picture of perfection, and more games should be played there.

The arena in NLR just needs some upgrades so it can host NCAA tourney games again and also the women’s SEC Tourney. The Hogs play there once a year and the games cannot even be streamed because of the setup being so outdated.


I don’t get this, if stephens wants to spend his money, upgrade this dumb shite and let the basketball play exhibitions against the other Arkansas schools.

- Ran out of water in concessions before half
- Ran out of food at concessions before half
- Absolutely no ticket scanners. People looked at phones and said “Come on In!”
- Not enough shitters

There are plenty of old stadiums out there that have been brought up to modern standards. It can be done. The problem with WMS is that it hasn't been done. If anything the stadium hasn't even been maintained to the level it was 20 or 30 years ago. I love the old girl as much as anyone but its time to put her out of her misery.

I'd much rather make the drive to NWA. Much nicer and more to do. I have many great memories with my dad and my grandpa at WMS and it saddens me that I won't with my grandson because I'll never step foot in that shithole again. Damn sure wouldn't take him there and ruin his first football experience. Time to move on. All things must come to an end.
