Good move getting one that's close to everything. You can get to the good tailgating by foot in 15 minutes.

How much was it?

There are closer places to park, that's a pretty good walk. Also like others have said, ColumbiaMex is a must and it's right by your hotel.

Yea, this place isn't flat like Baton Rouge.

There is no way in hell I would walk from Red Roof to the stadium. What buzz u had would be gone. What energy you had, would be gone. What u ate before that hike, would be gone.

Is the game in Fayetteville a permanent home game fix for the LSU vs Arky series?

Sorry if it has been discussed before. I didn't feel like searching.

When I didn't live here, we would always stay down in Ft.Smith at the Holiday Inn downtown. They had a bar and were located in a pretty good spot there.

Should be. Ole Miss and Miss State are now the fixtures in Little Rock.

This is a pretty nice hotel in north Fayetteville that my family always stays in when they come up. Its right on the interstate, so without traffic it takes bout 7 min to get to campus. LINK

No the hotel is good, I just meant you can park your car closer to the stadium instead of walking that far.

I'm in Candelwood Suites near interstate at MLK Drive. Should be walking distance to stadium.

I cancelled a Friday to Sunday reservation today, since the game is on Friday. Needless to say, I kept my Thursday to Saturday reservation. Give the hotel a call if you think it's workable for you.

The distance may not seem that far but the walk is along a 5 lane road for a while before you even get to campus

1 mile, even with the hills, shouldn't be a problem at ALL. Seriously. If you can't walk from Red Roof Inn to Razorback Stadium, you need to lose some weight or something.

He'll have PLENTY of opportunities along that walk to stop and chat up people too, then countless opportunities when he actually gets to Razorback Road. I don't see a problem.
