Razorback baseball starts this weekend. / Photo: Courtesy, ArkansasRazorbacks.com
Want to race some of the best athletes in the world this weekend? Ok, you probably can’t race them, but you can watch them race at the Tyson Invitation at the Randal Tyson Track Center this weekend. Here’s more info about that.
How about some baseball? The Diamond Hogs kick off their 2020 season with a series versus Eastern Illinois on Friday afternoon. Game time has moved up to 2 p.m. due to the fact that it’s going to get real cold this evening. Bundle up.
There’s a big Broadway show at Walton Arts Center this weekend. It’s called Once on This Island, and we’ve heard great things about it. Here’s what our reviewer Kevin Kinder had to say about the show.
There’s an Elton John tribute at George’s Saturday night. Sounds like a sing-a-long to us.
Also in Tunes, Smoke & Barrel has Joplin-based band, The Travel Guide on Saturday night.
Of course, it’s Valentine’s Day, and there are some special dinners below to check out with your person, if you want.
There’s plenty more below.
