Arkansas head football coach Sam Pittman is greeted by fans before as he enters the Little Rock Touchdown Club on Tuesday, Aug. 22, 2023, at the DoubleTree Hotel in Little Rock.
By 8:30 Tuesday morning, they started arriving even though the doors didn’t open until 11.
When the doors opened, the parking deck below the DoubleTree Little Rock was already full and there was a steady stream of folks arriving who had parked up to six blocks away.
