One Razorback Roadshow Set for Eight-City Bus Tour beginning May 13
The One Razorback Roadshow, presented by First Security Bank, is once again fueled up to travel across the great state of Arkansas connecting and interacting with Razorback fans of all ages beginning on May 13.
The four-day bus tour will feature Hunter Yurachek, vice chancellor and director of athletics, and other members of Razorback Athletics, including coaches, spirit squads and band members along with Big Red. The One Razorback Roadshow is a part of Razorback Athletics' ongoing commitment to be involved in communities across Arkansas while celebrating the passion and support of the Razorbacks throughout the state.
Roadshow events include free, public receptions where fans can gather to hear from members of Razorback Athletics while also enjoying complimentary appetizers and beverages. Photo opportunities with the Razorback spirit squads and Big Red, as well as other Razorback giveaways, will be available.
Fans will have the opportunity to enter to win special prizes, including complimentary game tickets, sideline passes to games, autographed items and special experiences. Various trophies will also be on display showcasing some of the great Razorback moments from this past year.
New this year at each stop, an official Razorback Road sign will be presented to community leaders as an opportunity to name a street in their city to showcase Razorback pride and spirit.
Jon Williams, the public announcer for Razorback Women's Basketball and Razorback Baseball, along with Matt Zimmerman, the color analyst for Razorback Men's Basketball radio broadcasts and the co-host of the Razorback Daily podcast, are set to serve as emcees for the events.
