I never understood the game atmosphere angle for a place like Arkansas.    

The stadium would sell out with good basketball, pleasant looking cheerleaders, and a pep band that played the right music at the right time. 

Somewhere in the mid 2000s, as a response to or in conjunction with the NBA it seems, "they" decided loud, obnoxious and distracting attractions was what the fans needed.  

Did fans really ask for DJs and laser shows?

This is a non-story: Let's see how BWA looks when conference games start.


I think the takeaway should be the university and the season ticket holders need to find a more effective way to get unused tickets into the hands of people that would like to attend. Maybe it is already in place and people just don't want to go and still spend and money on parking and concessions even with the free tickets or the aforementioned drive from an hour plus away or just general apathy about the opponent/ level of team play during the week. I know when I was a kid in LR, I'd have given my left nut to go watch the hogs play ball with Nolan's teams. Didn't get to do that until I was a student.

Someone please explain to me why tickets for a Friday night game against an in-state opponent are $30 upper deck and $55 lower end zone, while a Monday game against a lesser opponent from across the country sells for $40 and $75 for the same seats.



I would like to know this too.  Headed to 30A on Friday so will miss both games.  Have already sold the Maryland tickets but nothing on UALR.  Strange.

Post on Twitter. That's where I've had the most luck.

Up next, a social credit score for season ticket holders.  "Sorry, your tickets didn't attend the required minimum number of games last season.  To the nosebleeds with you."
"That's embarrassing.  Looks like Josh Duggar the first time his parents asked him to babysit."

For $7 mil I'll put a webcam in front of my shitter so I can answer fan questions while I drop the Longhorns off in College Station.

Once authored a post that critics claimed, "Was notaslibro level."

I only go to half the games but my tickets get close to 100% usage.

I didn't pay too much attention because I don't live there. But now it is developing that I might want 2 tix for tomorrow night v UALR. Based on earlier posts, what are ticket prospects either from woopiggers or more generally?
