My experience at Baum Stadium (beware CSB ahead)

I was there two years ago and saw LSU get swept so I enjoyed today's game very much.
Love sitting out in the Hog Pen to watch batting practice and drink some beer. Visited with some very nice Hog fans out there.
I posted last night about our getting selected for the Sports Clips front row seats. Loved watching the game from there even though the Hogs ran away with it.
Today, my son decides to enter the Arvest Fan Fly Ball Frenzy and he got selected.
Missed his first fly ball, crowd went "aww". Caught the second one back peddling, took a tumble but came up with the catch. Crowd gave him a nice big cheer. He caught the last one and ended up winning the 12-pack of Pepsi, Razorback sunglasses and a signed Dave Van Horn baseball.
With LSU's win it was a hell of a trip for our family. Had a great time at Fayetteville. Hogs really stepped up this weekend. Hope it continues for you guys.

I'd put it next to my "LSU Sucks" signed razorback helmet.
I think signing a ball for your more vocal Hog Pen Fence Crew is a fine thing to do.

I think I saw you, you had on a Tiger eye shirt that said Win, correct?

LSU always brings a good bit of fans to Baum. Its always an exciting series, no matter what. Its my favorite one of the season. Ole Miss is a close second.

I'd like to come back when it doesn't involve LSU and I can relax and enjoy.

Pat the PA guy is cool as hell, the second catch was so good he gave y'all all the prizes, haha.

He was so upset at himself that he didn't catch the first fly. As we walked up the steps, I had to keep telling him how good his second catch was. He finally started smiling when they told him he'd get all three gifts.
Were u working the home plate camera today?

Walked by a time or two and thought about yelling "Stone Hog" but some people from here don't like to be recognized.

Haha, that would have been awesome, that's how I met I Ham and Porker Face earlier this season.
Glad you enjoyed your trip, seeing all the Lsu fans at Baum really made me want to check out the Box.

Last time I was at the Box, it was the old Box and Brad Cresse was our bullpen catcher. I'd like to get down to the new Box too.

Second catch was pretty awesome. Glad he held onto the ball and they gave him all the prizes.
I've been to Baum many times as an LSU fan and wearing an Arkansas shirt. Getting treated differently that's for sure. But not like we do at the football games.
I've always enjoyed going to Baum Stadium. Great venue and great memories. I remember when out past 3rd base it was still a hill and not seats and all the kids(including myself then) would roll down it.
LSU and Arkansas have the best two venues in college baseball that's for sure.
