I must admit that I am hugely pleased that Will Neighbour is making an official visit. Quite frankly, I did not hold out much hope it would go this far. Just one step closer. It still could happen.

Did he not make an official visit when he committed to us the first time? His deciding to visit does sound like we're still in the hunt.

I heard we promised dinner at Faded Rose.

Do they serve crumpets and tea?

No but the best damn stuffed shrooms you'll ever eat!

So is the Bleu Burger for lunch and the Rib Eye for dinner.

I like the prime rib. I don't like the house dressing, which most do like. Good food through.

I hope we leave no doubt in his mind that we want him in LR.

Assuming he's read our board before, I feel confident he knows how much we're anticipating his coming here. Yeah Will!

Little Rock's own Diamond Bear Pale Ale. It's our secret weapon. It won two back to back biannual World Beer Cup gold medals in the English Style Pale Ale category in 2004 and 2006. Yes it beat out everything in England those years. If any of his older relatives are coming with him and they appreciate traditional British ales it is a huge selling point I kid you not. It is on tap at the Jack for every game. I don't know of any other collegiate venue that has such a thing. Their Porter is also excellent and very well received by the experts.

Anyone know when his visit is scheduled?

That I did not know. We ALWAYS get the Pale Ale - it's really good.
