Anyone know where to go for Thursday night and Friday pregame/night bar scene? Preferably not an exclusively 18-21 crowd.

The hangout on Thursday night for many LSU fans is the Westend Smokehouse. Very nice restaurant and bar and one of the few nice watering holes that is opened on Thanksgiving.

There are several bars/eateries in downtown Little Rock at the River Market that are fairly nice places. To name a few...Flying Saucer, Guisanno's, Flying Fish, Sticky Fingerz Rock N Roll Chicken Shack, Willy D's Piano Bar, Ernie Biggs Piano Bar, Underground Pub.... It's the most civilized place to have a few drinks that I have found.

There is a Double Tree, The Peabody, and Capital Hotel all within a few blocks of the river market as well.

Downtown crime is not that bad. I work in the Stephens Building right across the street from the Peabody, which is like 2 blocks from the River Market. Crime is pretty much non-existant. There are homeless people that roam the downtown area, but the worst they do is ask for moneys.

On our last trip up there on thursday night we had a great time at westend smokehouse,the crowd was about 50/50 .also we stayed at a Laquinta right across from the stadium (if you want to call it that)and it was very reasonable.

There's always the Bill Clinton Presidential Library and Massage Parlor.

As a corollary, try to get some Whole Hog BBQ while you are there. It is quality hog, something we are lacking down here.

Westend Smokehouse always has a large group of LSU fans on Thursday night before the game. It is one of the few bar/restaurants in Little Rock open on Thanksgiving. That is the best place to go if you need an LSU hangout the night before.
