The tailgating experience

I'd like to tell you all about the War Memorial Stadium golf course tailgating experience from Saturday, but we did something different this year: We tailgated at a house on Monroe Street, just a short walk to the stadium, and pretty much left the golf course to the crazies (we did the crazy thing, and then some, last year for Mississippi State). We did wander through about 45 minutes before game time near the 17th green, the reserved tailgating spots, and the one thing we noticed were how clustered and close, more than ever before, all the tailgaters were. It was daunting.

Anyway, here's a Little Rock fan's view of the WMS experience.
