Football Season

When the crisp, cool fall air makes its way into the South, that means only one thing: (no, not my birthday, even though that is important and occurs in the fall)...FOOTBALL SEASON! College football is finally upon us, especially SEC football and especially especially Arkansas Razorback football!!!

Our first kickoff is this Saturday at 6pm. We play Missouri State (who?) at War Memorial Stadium in Little Rock*. This game is one of two home games that the Razorbacks will play in LR, the other home games are played at Reynolds Stadium** in Fayetteville.

War Memorial Stadium

Donald W. Reynolds Stadium

Games at War Memorial are the best. Well, let me rephrase that. Tailgates at War Memorial are the best. Everyone gets up early and parks right on a golf course next to the stadium and tailgates all day. The one thing that's better than tailgating at War Memorial is beating LSU in the last 22 seconds of a game being played at War Memorial! WOOOO PIG SOOIE!

Of course, with any tailgate there's great food and that's what I'm here to talk about. I'm making my semi-famous Razorback sugar cookies :). You've seen them on the blog before, and you're going to see them again next week (hopefully new and improved)! I'll also post pictures of other foods perfect for tailgating.
