Going to Little Rock in November

Coming from BR, best route, IMO, is 61 to Natchez then 65 to Pine Bluff, 530 to Little Rock. You WILL see cops in: Vidalia, Ferriday, Clayton, Waterproof, East Carroll Parish (the worst), Reed, AR and Gurdon, AR, sometimes Gould, AR. Despite that, you can make pretty good time.

To stay: I believe the team is staying at the Peabody. Downtown is nice (Peabody, Doubletree, Capitol, Marriott Courtyard, Holiday Inn Presidential). West Little Rock has most of the hotels with an Embassy Suites, Crowne Plaza, another Courtyard, Springhill Suites, etc. and you'll have more chain restaurant type options out there than downtown. There is a place right across from the stadium called Markham House Suites, I think primarily used by people with family in nearby hospitals, but I know a few posters here have stayed there. There's also a La Quinta close to the stadium but you are getting into a bad part of town there.

The stadium sucks, you'll laugh at it, but hey, there is some semblance of tailgating there and you are getting to watch the Tigers!

that's a new one on me. How many miles is that?

I'm going to, and I'm stoked! I haven't been to a game in 4 years, because I'm living in choklahoma. Maybe we can meet up somewhere.

There is a Hilton Hotel that is right across the interstate from the stadium and golf course. It is nice. All of the other good hotels are about 5 miles from the field out in West Little Rock. I would highly recommend the Hampton Inn and Suites on Shackelford (right next to a Krispy Kreme) or the Holiday Inn Crowne Plaza on Shackleford. The Courtyard and Embassey Suites on Financial Parkway are nice as well.

I live in North Little Rock, and It's nice cause I'm close enough to everything and far enough away. There is a La Quinta right off of McCain Blvd. It's only about 10 min from the stadium.

I just moved up here, so I've never been around Little Rock for the LSU game, but I wouldn't stay to close to the stadium. There are some places to park for around 10 dollars right by the stadium that are worth it.

TigerGrl73 do u work in Little Rock?

I got my email today from LSU confirming 2 tickets

I always take 12 to 55 to Memphis and down 40.

Once went to Vicksberg and went up LA 65 I think and it was nerly dirt roads

Wow... just find that curious my mgr. is from Benton. Do you go to the Little Rock chapter gatherings? I went to the North Texas game, do you know any other cool places to chill here? I just moved here and am trying to get used to everything a bit still

LaQuinta....right across the highway from the stadium
