Tusk Funded to Travel
If Texas’ Bevo and Georgia’s Uga get to travel to away games, so should Tusk II, the Razorbacks’ live mascot.
University of Arkansas officials are setting up a voluntary fund so fans can contribute to the pig’s travel expenses. Tusk II lives on a farm in Dardanelle and has to travel two hours just to make home football games.
The fund would allow him to attend more away games as well as other sporting events, such as basketball, soccer and baseball games. Donations can be made anywhere Tusk II makes an appearance, as well as through the Razorback Foundation.
