You couldn't pay me to watch a track meet.

Difference in Alabama and Arkansas.

Arkansas has world class athletes who come just to run on our track. Tyson Indoor is regarded as the fastest in the world. In the mid 2000's, Arkansas had the fastest man and woman in the world, at the same time.

Tyson Invitational is one of the biggest meets of the year. In an Olympic year, there will be very big names running in the meet.

We aren't talking high school track meets here. This is international.
