Which of these games or better worded... which of these stadiums/towns would be most enjoyable to visit for an away game this year. I am already attending the LSU game. That was obviously my first choice but i try to make two away games a year.

So I guess what it boils down to is what is the better visitor fan experience Arkansas or Ole Miss?

Appreciate the help in advance!

Oxford > Fayetteville

Fayetteville is beautiful and a cool college town, but Oxford's got the better tailgating scene and the food and bars are better too.

Go to Fayeteville

This is your last chance to come here for a while. The game in 2014 will be played in CS and after that it's in Dallas

You're going to have all the Arky fans saying Arky and everyone else saying Oxford for like 5 pages.

Give me Fayetteville over Oxford any day. Personally, I hated the grove. The strip of bars and restaurants down the hill at Arkansas was pretty nice. Had a good time at the Hog Haus before the game.

I've never been to Arkansas.

That said, Ole Miss is better because I freaking love going there. I have a blast every time, I've even been a handful of times non-sports related.

Just don't shoot off a fire extinguisher in the apartments near the bars. I went there for an LSU game one year and my buddy did this. Fire alarms went off and 2 of the bars had to empty out. Bad news for 2 guys and a girl walking the streets covered in white extinguisher residue.

I've never visited Arkansas so I don't know how it is over there but it would be a shame for anyone to miss out on the Groove

Keep in mind, the people saying Ole Miss is so great are douchey drunk frat types. If you don't have your head up your arse, Fayetteville is much better.

I was pretty let down with the aTm turnout last year. Although I do realize that is quite a trip but still, it was their first SEC road game.


I kind of agree with what the Ark fans are saying though. Dont get me wrong, Oxford is my city and will be frickin rocking that weekend. But if I am not mistaken yall come here in 2014 too.

Go to fayetteville, whip the hogs arse up and down the field, and go claim some womenz from Dickson Street. It'll be fun.



Or you can come watch Johan swallow his mouthpiece.


The choice is yours.

On any normal year honestly I'd say Oxford. But as has been mentioned, this is your last chance to come to Fayetteville for a long time. Starting in 2014 we play in Jerry World for the next 300 years. You'll be able to go to Oxford again in 2015 most likely

Well Fayetteville it is... Suggestions on "Must Visit" locations... and in contrast "Avoid this place at all cost" locations?

If you want some legit southern food, the best tailgating in college football, and probably a better game I'd pick Ole Miss. I've been to Fayetteville and enjoyed it, but the stadium is out in the middle of fricking nowhere. As others have said though you might want to jump on this since it is the last time y'all play in Fayetteville for a good while. Either trip would be fun though.
