Arkansas Subreddit

Who else agrees that the Arkansas sub is toxic? You can have people cursing at you but you try to defend yourself and YOU are the one who gets banned. And it’s 95% NWA fanboys as well and it’s really annoying.

why don't KAIT support ASU sports?

I went to KAIT to check out the ASU football scores and the home page had big headliines giving the Arkansas, Missouri score. It seems to be always the case. You almost always have to dig into their website to find ASU scores. While other teams get their scores posted on the home page. what do you think?

Brookland Construction

Driving to and from Jonesboro, I noticed they cleared out a significant number of trees right beside the Taco Bell/Jordan’s. I haven’t heard anything about what it might be. Does anyone have any information?

Jamming in Jonesboro 🎶

Greetings & salutations,

I just moved to town and wanted to see If there’s any fellow music makers that might be interested in getting together for a little jam sesh.

My primary influence is 2000’s indie type stuff but I’m a fan of most genres. Guitar is my primary instrument but I also sing, play a little bass, and have been known to tickle the ivories.

I used to host a little open mic back in Phoenix and am also wondering if anyone knows of a bar/restaurant/coffee shop that might be receptive to that sort of thing. Thanks in advance 🙏✨

Where do you purchase your beer/wine/spirits?

Obviously Craighead County is dry but where do you purchase your beer/wine/spirits?

I usually go to Payless in Trumann as I find the stores at the Poinsett line (Poinsett Package and The Country Store) along with the ones in Paragould to be overpriced. How does Mr. T's compare price wise? It's about the same distance from my house as Payless but I pass Payless more often due to trips to Memphis.

Anybody have any additional input?

any locals know places to eat or buy a thanksgiving feast?

we will be in a hotel for 3/4 days and we are not wanting to cook thanksgiving dinner this year and be pampered. we don't live in Jonesboro. we don't mind getting it to-go or going into the restaurant. it will just be my husband and i, but we are big backs.. LOL. i did some googling and found some promoting a thanksgiving dinner on their website like golden corral & cracker barrel. I've never ate at golden corral. so its on the list for #1 to try so far. :) thx in advance~

Does anyone remember the “Q” van, is it still driving around?

Specifically during 2020 I remember seeing this white van driving around with “Q-Anon” slogans and writing all over it in black ink. I was seeing it up until last year. As a firmly anti-Q believer it was very interesting to see I was wondering if anyone has seen it around or if it disappeared after the Trump presidential win?

Anyone else experience car trouble this evening?

Driving home this evening just after 5 my car died at a light for a little bit. There was a wreck that happened down the street at the same time and I swear I saw a lot of people on the side of the road.

Am I going crazy or did something happen?

Dentist

Hey r/Jonesboro!

I genuinely love to see people smiling with confidence! I’m Dr. Shane Smith DDS, and fortunately, I make this happen for a living! I’ve been a dentist in Jonesboro AR for about 8 years, and in 2021, I took over for Dr. Steve Abernathy when he retired from our dental office located at 2919 Browns Lane. I just wanted to introduce myself and see if my practice would be a good fit for you and your family.

Instead of having to visit multiple dentists to get the care you need, I offer comprehensive services for kids and adults in procedures as simple as routine checkups and as complicated as dental implant placement, root canal treatment, and smile makeovers. If you have a dental emergency, I’m ready to help you out of pain and get your smile back on track as soon as possible.
