I've been a HS football coach for 21 years in South Arkansas so a Saturday trip to Fayetteville has always been tough to do.... been to a ton of LR games and even a bowl game or two.. .but never to the Hill for a FB game... Transitioned into school administration this year and tomorrow the wife and I will be in attendance for the first time at DWR. Hope there's not a big let down for Ga. Southern after last week. Preparing for the option makes me a little nervous.

Man, just enjoy it and try not to let that unlikely scenario play out in your head. You've earned a stress free, relaxing reward! Hope you have a great time. Where are y'all going to eat? I used to love going to Hugo's on gamedays when I could. I'm sure others could give you better tips if you needed.

I'm coming in for the game as well, and this will be my first one. I don't have a parking pass, does anyone know if there is any cash parking coming in from the north on Garland? I figured there was probably enough out MLK way, but I would like to hit up the bookstore and check out my name on the senior walk, which is now east of Old Main.

Thanks

No parking on that side that I can recall. It’s all uphill and then boom you’re on campus. Only spot I can think of is the parking garage attached to the bookstore. I never parked there because we would carpool into the tailgate spot.


Is this your first time seeing your name? It’s super cool. Are you on Arkansas Ave then? I am up on Dickson by the Old Main lawn

So best bet come in on MLK and find some cash lot?

It is! I'm super excited about it. They started 2019 on Arkansas Ave, then it turns right down Maple, so could be either.

I’d come in from the College end of MLK. Fayetteville High School usually has paid Peking available.

You can park where you were asking at Harps and also go down to Leverett and there’s usually some paid parking places past Eureka Pizza. Coming from that direction is pretty damn hilly though.

To avoid any walking you can park at Baum and take the shuttle bus up prior to the game and back after the game. Just have to wear a mask in the bus.

Also, if your name is east of Old Main…you may just want to park somewhere on Dickson and pay for the day in a garage and walk from there? Just a thought.

They used to sell their spaces prior to the season and they would mail a pass. Did they stop doing that?

This is extremely helpful, thank you!

Yeah if you're looking for 2019 names, I'd just park somewhere on Dickson, pay the $5 for all day parking, and call it a day

Really enjoyed the game! Parked at Baum and walked over to Foghorns for lunch. Loved the atmosphere. I can't imagine what that place is like for a game like Texas.

Note to self.... don't sit on the East side for an afternoon game!!!!
got a little sunburn going on!
