Will gladly drive the 2.5 or so hours instead of the 30 minutes. From a dump to a very nice stadium.
ARky's stadium is very nice and Fayettville is a great town...been to dickenson st many times....great place...great scenery...

I agree. I've seen a game in Fayetteville, myself (vs. Auburn, 2009) and it's a beautiful stadium in a VERY scenic setting with good food and good fans.
I predict it will be a far superior experience for fellow LSU fans than Little Rock is (win or lose).
I admit, though, that living in Little Rock, I'll really miss the convenient opportunity. I was hoping to score some tickets for my dad and me with him staying at my house for the weekend.
I think I can still do that, though, with the game in Fayetteville, PLUS have the opportunity to show my dad some of the most beautiful scenery in Arkansas along the way.

Hmmmmmmmm...wonder if he posts on the rant?
We have a few here who,"He has a special hate for Les", fit that description.
I'm sure Petrino and his team will be loaded for bear when we visit.

This. I went to LR and didn't like it much. Didn't have a "college" feel.

Im not from the south, so please explain why Ark plays at 2 different fields? Is one a field that has nothing to do with Ark athletics? Is one their old college stadium?

bout damn time...

Tradition. Arkansas started playing games in Little Rock at Quigley Stadium long, long ago. The trip to Fayetteville from the south takes you through some very rugged country, and the roads weren't up to par for many years. Plus Little Rock was always the population base for the state.
The reasons for playing in Little Rock have been gone for many years, but the tradition is loved by many, and so we actually lose $ to play down there.

I'm with you about the fans in Little Rock. Hope the fan quality improves in Fayetteville, couldn"t possibly go down.

Good Deal! Now 15,000 more people will be on hand to see the pigs get their arse handed to them.

Thank God. I was tired of going to that shite excuse for a stadium.
Posted on 2/17/12 at 11:02 pm to musick
That could not have been fun.

I guess this could change in the future? I don't want to miss a once-in-a-decade game that's actually on campus. Then again, Hogs fans are so damn annoying.
