LSU - Arkansas have played in Little Rock for at least the last decade. Terrible site. Glorified high school stadium and no surrounding campus. Fayetteville is the only SEC campus I've never visited for a game, for this exact reason.

What about a white-out at Penn State or Ohio State - Michigan? Or travel down to Tallahasee for FSU - Florida?

It was a pleasure meeting y'all. I am glad to hear y'all had a good tailgating/gameday experience.

Bama at LSU next year would be a great one...it would also be an excuse to spend more time in NOLA.

How was Commnader's? Where did y'all end up eating your lunch the next day?

That's not encouraging.

I was actually discussing Penn State with my brother Monday. He is a sports reporter and knows Sydney Crosby (a Nova Scotian). There was some discussion of doing a Penguins, Penn State, Steelers combo. My father went to Michigan State, so we'd think about involving him for thatb matchup.

OSU - Michigan would be good. I'd like to see the Horseshoe more than the Big House.

FSU - Florida would be good, but FSU has to get better.

It's too early because the Thursday night ESPN schedule is not out yet, but I'd like to do a combo Thursday, Saturday.

I'll have to see how things unfold - there are a lot of fellas that want to go to Arkansas.

TA, thanks for the tour. It was great and much appreciated by us. We would not have seen half the stuff on our own.

Bama at LSU would be a good matchup.

Commander's was great. I have to admit though that I was still stuffed from lunch.

Our ticket broker talked the fellas into Mother's on Friday for lunch. It was a lot of fun, and the fellas really liked it. Although it was full of Gator fans.

Must be "Doc" trying to talk you into an Arkansas trip so he can chow down on barbecue all weekend!

He is one of them. I must have told him a million times that, while Louisiana has BBQ, that is not what they are known for, and that he should experience the other cuisine. Despite my best efforts he went with ribs at the Chimes, while I had the crawfish ettouffe.

This was a great weekend, even for light weights like me. And yes, I enjoyed my ribs. Thanks boys

Like to keep a low profile...but gameday in LSU has turned that around. Great time.
