a “Wooo Pig Sooie” could be heard all over campus as UA students joined in spirit to support their Hogs. The roar of hog cheers bellowed out of the Greek Theatre four times in the fall as the students gathered for pep rallies to support the Razorback football team. “The pep rallies are a lot of fun and a good way to show the guys that we are behind them 100 per¬ cent,” said freshman Lacey Brunner. Rain or shine, there was always a sea of red and white in the student sec¬ tion of the Razorback Stadium as the students hoped to cheer the players to victory. Baum Stadium was another popular place for UA fans to show their enthusiasm for the baseball team. The stadium continuously filled to its capacity every game.
