Restore the Slobber Hog at Bud Walton Arena

The Issue

As a lifelong Razorback fan and resident of Fayetteville, AR, I have witnessed the glory days when our beloved team won a national championship with the original Slobbering Hog logo proudly displayed on the court. This logo is not just an image; it represents our history, our pride, and our collective spirit as Razorback nation. 

In recent years, however, this iconic symbol has been replaced at Bud Walton Arena. This change has not only altered the aesthetic of our home court but also tampered with a cherished piece of Razorback tradition that holds deep sentimental value for many fans like myself.

The Slobbering Hog logo was introduced in 1931 and remained as an emblematic representation of Razorback spirit until its replacement (source: University of Arkansas). It's more than just nostalgia; it's about preserving what makes us unique.

By signing this petition, we are requesting that the university of Arkansas athletic department and Bud Walton Arena restore the original Slobbering Hog logo to its rightful place on their court. Let us bring back this symbol of unity and strength for all to see - from current students and staff to alumni and future generations who will carry forward our legacy.

Please sign this petition to help restore an integral part of Razorback history.
