However, I will stand up for us poor, not worthy folks down here when talked down to.
Breaking promise.
See, its not personal for me.
For you, its about what's best for you.
For me, its about loading up the entire program and shipping it 200 miles to play a "home game" in front of 48,000 people, and pretending like that is what is best for the program.
If Little Rock was the size of Dallas and WMS was a 90k seat ultra modern NFL stadium, I'd insist we keep games there every year.

I agree. I think everyone wants games in Jerryworld
DFW is to us now what LR was to us in the 1950s

Exactly. I have been to 3 Arkansas games in JerryWorld since the last time I went to one in Little Rock. It looks so good on us.

Its pretty close to south Arkansas too.

Exactly
Just because DFW is in a different state doesn't mean anything. In fact, it is in a better state to pull recruits from

But tickets are too pricey and there's no golf course!!!!!!1

And again, we are probably pretty close to getting as many students now from Texas as we do from Little Rock.

You could go to one of the nicest stadiums in the world located in a metro area with plenty to do, basically make a weekend of it OR you can go to WMS and try to beat the sunset out of town.

See, its not even about fan experience. Even if that is out of the equation, the exposure to great recruiting areas, the way it looks on TV, versus how WMS looks, and how much $$$ we make from the game.
JerryWorld games are better for our program than WMS games.
That is what is important.

and you wouldn't be one if all the games had only been played in fayetteville when you were growing up, amirite?

Keep Arkansas Poor and Backward, because that's how we were raised. I think that's a life slogan for some folks.
I like nice things. I like $$. I like having the best shite.
I'm kind of a baller.
Paging Sun Hog.

He would have never heard about the hogs. LR is the only thing keeping hogs relevant in today's world.

Same statement would be true if you lived in Russellville.

i like having a home game played where the students of the university playing are located (often known as the 'home' of the team)
while it was once the norm, no other team in the nation does does the in-state split games thing. there is a reason why.

Florida and Texas kinda do.
So we should keep on game in WMS if a team like Tulane would agree to play there every year, maybe keep the date the same weekend as the state fair.
