As we climbed the stairs in the stadium, we looked down on the "sea of red" walking on
Razorback Road in Fayetteville. :) |
 |
I bought my tickets via StubHub. We sat in Section 502, and I guess you would call this the "nose bleed" section, for we sat on the highest row all the way at the top.
There was one advantage to sitting so far up:
We had the back ledge to lean our back on. That is much more comfortable than sitting on the bleacher
style benches with nothing to lean back against.

Three photos of the stadium and field. |

Here's one token photo of Charles and I having a good ol' time.
Charles drove all the way from Memphis
to meet me in Fayetteville to attend this year's game. We did the same thing
last year at the 2009 Arkansas vs. South Carolina game.
It was a dreary and windy day. Rain was in the forecast for the afternoon
and the weather did quite a number to my hair. Good grief! :p) |
 |
Sometime in the third quarter, it began to lightly drizzle. It was at that point that practically everyone in sight pulled out their plastic covering. Some people called them ponchos. Whatever they were, they apparently helped make the rain bearable.
As for Charles and I, we didn't think of bringing one of these plastic rain jackets.
I felt like when I was in the second grade all over again, when the teacher asked to pull
out our homework and everyone brought theirs out ... except me. :o) |
 |
Within minutes, the announcer declared a delay because
of the threat of thunder and lightning. All fans were to move undercover in the concourse area.
It was then that it rained like crazy with thunder and lightning!
Definitely watch the video below to see what it was like.
At this point,
a number of spectactors decided to leave. After the second delay, even more fans left.
Well, not too brag, but I drove 950 miles
from Colorado
to attend this game, and there was no way I would leave until it was entirely over!
|
 |
When fans returned to their seats and play resumed,
Charles had the wise idea of bringing napkins to wipe our metal seats. |
 |
After a second lightning and thunder delay, the
game finally ended with the Razorbacks defeating Ole Miss 38-24. Notice the
fireworks in front of the scoreboard. :)

Upon exiting the stadium, it began to rain hard again.
We parked at the McDonald's in Fayetteville, which wasn't a long walk before the game.
However, with torrential rain coming down, we had no choice but to run. We felt like running
backs as we jogged on Razorback Road with everyone else.
At one point, I shouted to Charles to stop and turn back. Ha ha! My photo doesn't
show how hard the rain was coming down at this point. |
 |
Back at the car, Charles photographed a shot of myself soaking wet.
This cotton long-sleeve Razorbacks shirt is my favorite in my wardrobe. :) |
 |
Charles and I returned to our hotel room in Bentonville. After cleaning and drying ourselves up,
I got this nice portrait of us through the mirror. We had a great time and the Hogs won! :)
