I am also headed there on Friday but decided to fly did not want to drive by myself. Will be staying at the embassy suites in Bentonville with the team and around 55 alumni. The alumni are taking 2 bus loads from the hotel to the game. I have never been to Arkansas beforelooking forward to the trip. My group is planning on eating at Crabbys friday night in rogers AR supposed to have the best seafood.

Been to Hugo's quite a bit. Be prepared for a long wait. Hope everyone can make it down to Dixon Street.

For all travelers, I hope you have a great time - especially the first-timers to Fayetteville. It's not the size of Neyland, but I hope you enjoy our little stadium.

We have our own over-anxious young people, too. Just like eveyone else in the SEC. So please excuse them. When they tell you how bad you're going to be beaten, simply smile and wave at them like I do while in Knoxville.

If I see you walk by my tailgate, I'll invite you over for a cold brew and a burger to chew on. I love visiting with opponent's fans.

For the 20-something crowd, Dickson Street in Fayetteville is a great hang out on Friday night. Don't start no trouble, won't be none. Pretty friendly game-eve crowd.

40-somethings, stay away from Dickson. You're too old! Check with your hotel desk for the appropriate venue. There are several.

Travel safe. Hope to share a beer with some Vol fans.

Sarcasm?

Not being a doucher, but why would anyone want to make it a point to look at a picture inside the stadium (including ARK fans)?

I was being sarcastic but its more of a statue type thing than a picture. Just thought it was funny how they happened to have the game against yall as the one they used IIRC.

Driving up from Dallas Friday afternoon. Will be my first game in Fayettville.

We go to three games per year--two in Neyland & one road game. Wife has not seen a Vols win since we were dating (2003, in the swamp). We have been married almost 8 years. It has been a bad decade for TN football.

One of my bucket list goals is to go to all the conference schools. I am kicking myself for deciding not to go Saturday. Arkansas and LSU are my only two left but with changes in the league I better start exercising more if I want to live long enough to get to all of them!

My wife and I came to Fayetteville in '06 to watch McFadden and Jones go crazy on us. Aside from the beating and freezing our butts off, we had a nice time while we were there. We went to a tailgate of a guy that grew up in my hometown who lives in Fayetteville and had some good fun with the Razorback fans.

It was a good gameday experience.

I will be there along with 4 others, clad in orange. We are all transplants from Tennessee. I love living in Bentonville, but I miss the greenest state in the land of the free. We actually have alot of Vol fans in NWA, suppliers (me) and Walmart bring in people from all over. For all you first timers, I hope that you enjoy your time here. Don't be a stranger. Go Vols!
