	I live in Little Rock now, but I'm from Ft Smith, so I've had the best of both worlds. What I'm hoping for one day is more (and better) games in Little Rock for the fan base in central Arkansas. What do you all think?

	Amen brother, I have been to many sporting events in my lifetime all over the country and I am still hard pressed to find anything that can compete with a Hogs game in the Rock. The tailgating, the fanfare, the electricity in the air, it's just plain hard to beat. But, with that being said don't expect to get any more games ( we actually may loose one ) in the Rock with our current administration. The only thing to hold out for is a big one against an old rival, Oh say Texas in Little Rock ( never happen ) but it would be crazy.

	Yeah, i feel you Bo. It sucks cuz all we get are the crap games. The environment down here is much better than Fayetteville when it comes to pre-game festivities. It's easy to see that the "new" money up in Fayetteville is trying to keep the Hogs up there and the "old" money that used to control much of the Hogs is weakening. I would love to see Texas down here or even an Auburn or Alabama game. I just hate getting Lousiana-Monroe or Tenn. Chattanooga, that's crap! One thing that may help the situation is renovating the stadium...it only holds about 55K and that won't help us getting more games down here. I think before long, we won't get any games at all and everyone south of Fayetteville will feel the brunt of that...

	Now that Broyles is retired, I wish Mr. Stephens offer to upgrade War Memorial was still on the table. He offered to add upper decks on both sides to match capacity to Fayetteville if they would keep three games. Broyles was out. I love the atmosphere in the Rock and still have season tix for LR. At least we get LSU every other year!

	Don W. Reynolds Stadium holds 80,000 people, thats about double what War Memorial holds, that means there is more money for the Razorbacks up on The Hill. Being from Fort Smith, game days are only a 40 minute drive. The University of Arkansas is located where? Fayetteville. The University of Arkansas-Little Rock is located where? Little Rock. LSU, Alabama, Florida, Tennessee, OU, USC....they play in their home stadiums, not multiple "home-neutral" stadiums.

	*The University of Arkansas is located where? Fayetteville. The University of Arkansas-Little Rock is located where? Little Rock.* *GO HOGS!* True, but UALR does not have a football team and Central Arkansas has been very supportive of the Razorbacks throught the years. The crowds in LR are way louder than in Fayetteville and I think the players enjoy coming down for the games! I would not call LR a "home-neutral" site.

	RazorbackG Look at the schedule, thats how we get away with playing those crappy teams down in Little Rock, because we give it to them as either a "Neutral/Home" game. Playing against LSU every year whether its in @ Home or in Baton Rogue is easily our biggest game every season, especially since its the last game of the Regular Season. This game should be played @ Home....where the University of Arkansas is located. War Memorial is Louder? Are you insane? Its an enclosed stadium which allows for echo more. Don W. Reynolds stadium really gets kicking when there is 80,000+ screaming drunk Hog Wild fans. My point about UALR had nothing to do with football and thats great the Central Arkansas supports the Hogs,
