Places to eat:
Steaks - Doe's, Herman's
Sushi - Shogun, Kobe or Wasabi
Catfish - Catfish Hole
Seafood - don't bother
Cajun - Cafe Rue Orleans tries
Burgers - Hugo's, Feltner's
Italian - Joe's or go to Tontitown for Venetian Inn
Pizza - Damn Good Pies, Gusano's

Nightlife - Dickson Street is best for walk around bars

Tailgating - not a great area for this, it's spread out. Most Pig fans are not into inviting outsiders, especially LSU fans. We go to Foghorn's Sports Bar, park, eat and drink there and then catch the bus to the game (both ways).

Dress warm, usually cold during that time.

Lots of hotels in Fayetteville, Springdale, Rodgers and Bentonville which are all close.you can also stay in Eureka which is about an hour away. It's a kitschy Swiss styled town.

DWS is an OK stadium. Expect rude Pig fans, they are here and are not fond on LSU. Little man syndrome.

Come up, the area is beautiful, there are good places to go and except for the Hog fans, a great place to visit.

There is a restaurant on the way to Fayettville that serves Fried Chicken and Spaghetti and meatballs together that is real good.

I assume you live in the area... How long should I expect a drive from Springdale to take on game day?

Also is there a good golf course you would recommend playing the Friday before?

We just moved to KC and I'm seriously thinking of driving down for the game. Only 3 1/2 hrs away.

Can we at least get pics of the sorority sisters?
