Greetings from Little Rock, AR

Arkansas · The Natural State

The Ridges at Village Creek State Park

4v3 pros vs Joes scramble

What happened on Day 36 · Little Rock, Arkansas

Day 36 heads north toward Arkansas with a Dairy Queen stop in Sheridan, a diesel pump that won't stop overflowing and a round of Imposter where it turns out nobody had the word. Little Rock brings the first barbecue of the whole trip, where Steve calls the ribs a top-three rib of his life. The Walmart club challenge falls apart when neither Walmart nor Target sells clubs, so Academy Sports steps in. Then it's pros versus Joes in a 4v3 scramble.

Top score
“92, highest ranking so far. … The golf was my favorite golf so far. Me, Getty, and Garrett shared a cart the whole time. Even though we got smoked, it was fun.”

“I'm giving Arkansas a 78. I think it was beautiful. Barbecue was really good. It didn't come out well.”

Best story
“I don't love barbecue typically cuz I've had so much of it being from Kansas, but … it tasted amazing. As soon as we broke that driver on hole one, it became pretty tough to compete.”

“I'm going 80. Arkansas was fun. I loved the meat the night before. … I don't love barbecue typically cuz I've had so much of it being from Kansas, but that particular situation I had going on my plate, it tasted amazing. The golf was some of the most fun I've had, but as far as competition wise, as soon as we broke that driver on hole one, it became pretty tough to compete.”

“I went with an 87. The barbecue was fire. Some of the best ribs I've had, but for some reason the sauce just tore me up. But I enjoyed Arkansas. Ended up getting the coin.”
BubbieBubbie
“I'm going 84. Food was good. Course was really cool actually. I'm sure when it's green and not burnt out, it's even more stunning. We won. I'm going 84 for Arkansas. It was a fun state.”
GhettiGhetti
“I'm giving Arkansas a 78. I think it was beautiful. Barbecue was really good. It didn't come out well, but 78 for me.”
ScharffScharff
“87 going similar. I think it was some of the best ribs I've ever had as far as barbecue is concerned. The brisket was very well done. Academy Sports and Outdoors. That was a lot of fun. … Steven yelling the entire time. It was pretty funny. … I thought that golf course was one of the coolest and most unique golf courses we've played on this trip so far.”
BlakeBlake
“I'm going 86 for Arkansas. I've always loved Arkansas. Had a lot of good times there. I'm close to Kansas City, which I enjoyed. Barbecue was phenomenal. And I thought the course is also sick. I would have liked to play that course with probably my own clubs.”
MasonMason
“92 highest ranking so far. I had a lot of fun. I thought the food was probably my favorite food so far. Also, the golf was my favorite golf so far. Me, Getty, and Garrett shared a cart the whole time. Just had a blast. Even though we got smoked, it was fun. So 92.”
