Where to stay/where to eat/what to do in Jonesboro?

[IdeaL]

My parents are considering making the trip up to Jonesboro for the game Thursday, and they’re wondering what’s a good place to stay that’s in close proximity to the stadium, where to eat, what to do, etc. Was hoping those who have made the trip in the past can chime in with some suggestions. Thanks in advance

Edit: oh and is there anyway to get tickets to the game through our ticket office?

Each time we’ve gone, we stay in Memphis an hour away. Yes, the Cajundome box office does have tickets. You will have to stop by or call them because away tickets can’t be purchased online. I hope that changes soon to expedite the process and encourage fans to travel with the team.

That should tell you everything you need to know about Jonesboro Arkansas.

High crime rate for sure.

Jonesboro is actually a pretty good place. It has come a LONG way since I first started going there. Still technically a dry county because there is no place to buy alcohol. But almost all of the restaurants have a full bar.

As far as places to stay, there is a new Embassy Suites right across from the stadium, but I don't think it's available the night before the game as the team stays there.

Hilton Garden Inn is the next choice in my opinion. There's also a Fairfield Inn I've stayed at that's pretty nice. Holiday Inn Express as well. None of those are near the stadium, which is on the outskirts of town.
