The 2021 ONE Razorback Roadshow tour kicks off on May 17 with an event in Harrison, followed by events on May 18 in Dumas, on May 19 in Hot Springs and culminating with an event on May 20 in Little Rock. Fans interested in attending any Roadshow evening events are encouraged to RSVP via the respective event links.
“We are excited to once again have an opportunity to bring the Razorbacks into communities throughout Arkansas,” Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics Hunter Yurachek said. “The ONE Razorback Roadshow is a way that we can say thank you to Razorback Foundation members and other loyal fans, in every corner of our state, who help make the Razorback program successful. With Coach Sam Pittman and Tusk V as part of the lineup, this is certainly an event you do not want to miss. Make your plans now to come dressed in Razorback Red and be ready to ‘Call the Hogs’ as we celebrate our shared passion for the Arkansas Razorbacks and salute the best fans in the nation!”
