Your favorite animal? A Hog, obviously. 🐗

The Hogs play tomorrow night, but you can get the spirit started tomorrow morning at the Worst Race Ever! Our animal theme has room for Razorbacks, too, so throw on your red and bring a little Woo Pig Sooie to the starting line.

Run wild in the morning. Call the Hogs at night. Now that’s a Saturday. 🙌
