I figured if people were going to be ridiculous, we might as well go whole hog.

Sounds like an auction in here!

501Arkansas

Come on guys let's be serious lol

Should be a good game.
Maybe the first real test for Rison all year.
We'll see how the Cats travel.
Have to admit was hoping for Smackover, easier travel for our fans plus we have a rich history with them.
Hope you field is in better shape that Smackover's though.

Our field is turf don't have anything to worry about. Smackover field was terrible but we did what we came to do

WonderWartHawg

Good. We are accustomed to turf at home.

So I started a thread without seeing this one had been started. 🤦🏻‍♀️  Anyway...I need logistics lol. We are coming a long way next week so here's what I wanna know:

I'm just wanting some basic information about Osceola.
1) Good places to eat?
2) What is the seating situation like at their stadium? Should we bring lawn chairs?

Looking forward to a good game between two good teams.

Head Lion

Mexican resteraunt on main road close to Walmart best food in town. Plenty of seating on visitor side. Concessions a D at best, be full when you get to game. Not a real hotel for a nights stay. Plus get gas in West Memphis/Marion, Osceola 10-15 cents higher than anyone within 50 miles. 👍🏼

Big visitor bleachers... no need for lawn chairs. Nice turf well lit field. Only thing is you will park behind visitors bleachers and the lighting is poor in parking lot. Well actually there was no lighting their last year. As far as food... we stopped along the way. They do have some fast food places though. Visitors side has its own concession.

Osceola has a least 3 nice hotels gas a mile in to Osceola is 229 it's a straight shot off the expressway and back so its no hassle. Safe travels to Rison and their fans. Seminole stadium is very nice you can bring chair backs if you wanna sit back.

Is this the first meeting between Rison and Osceola? If not, what's the history?

Warriors023

Anxious to see how this game turns out. Two very volitale offenses in this match up. If it wasn't across the state from me I'd go and enjoy some amazing 3AAA football

Should be a dandy Noles tough at home.

Noles by 16  good luck guys from here in Randolph county go get that dub

Questions:  1:  is there a place for lawn chairs in the end zone area? 
2:  is Osceola's field turf? 

Looking forward to this game!  Rison travels well and so do their fans, so this should be a good one!

Wasn't it Osceola that we beat in the finals in '50?  If not, I know we played them in the playoffs that year.

I think so too. I remember seeing the football in the trophy case at the south end of the hall in the old high school building. There was one from beating Atkins in the playoffs that year as well. Rison's first state championship out of the 8 they have now.

The quarterback was George Walker. He went on to become an all-conference legend for the Razorbacks from 1953-1956.  He then had a long and successful career with Simmons Bank.

What if we prefer lawn chairs, ca we bring them and can we sit in the End Zone area? 

flow51

The field has a track and fence around it. Almost positive that they arnt going to allow anyone inside the fence other than anyone affiliated with the team until the game is over.

Okay, not a problem, just prefer the view from the End Zone.  We can cheer and watch from anywhere to support our cats!  Go Rison!  We can slobberknock with the best of them!!!
