Stock up on these specially shaped nuggets for the start of the Razorback® football team tailgate and homegate season as you cheer your beloved Hogs to victory.

SPRINGDALE, Ark. – July 30, 2024 – Football fever is kicking into high gear, and two treasured Arkansas brands are teaming up to let fans express their love for tailgating and game day parties with the launch of Tyson® Razorback™ Nuggets. Fans can support their team this fall with Tyson^® brand’s white meat nuggets designed in the shape of the University of Arkansas’s iconic hog mascot.

Headquartered in Northwest Arkansas, home to the University of Arkansas, the Tyson team is steeped in the Razorback® fandom that inspired the creation of the special nuggets. The announcement just three months ago that legendary Hall of Fame coach John Calipari would take over as the Razorback® head basketball coach sparked a new level of excitement among tried-and-true Hogs fans and a steady chorus of calls arose to do something to celebrate their beloved Razorbacks® in a special way.

 “�ǿ����޴�ý is in Razorback® Country, most of our team members are huge Razorback® fans and our consumers have been calling for a way to celebrate their team. We’ve listened and are excited to deliver Tyson® Razorback™ Nuggets to Arkansas fans in time for the football season,” said Kristina Lambert, SVP & GM Retail Value Added Poultry, �ǿ����޴�ý. “These nuggets are perfect for upcoming game day events and just in time for tailgating, so stock up!”

“When Arkansas fans cheer on our teams this season they will be inspired by their passion for the Hogs and fueled by the new Tyson® Razorback™ Nuggets,” said Hunter Yurachek, University of Arkansas Vice Chancellor and Director of Athletics. “With these two iconic Arkansas brands teaming up, the Razorback™ Nation will be primed and ready to ‘Call the Hogs’ from pre-game to post-game while showing their loyal support of our more than 460 Razorback™ student-athletes.”  

The Razorback™ Nuggets join the collection of �ǿ����޴�ý fun nuggets that also includes Spooky Nuggets shaped like ghosts, bats and pumpkins, and the perennial kid-favorite Dino Nugget. They are an excellent source of protein with 13 grams per serving, fully cooked and skillfully breaded, and are ready in under seven minutes in an air fryer. They can be found in the freezer aisle of select Walmart stores in early August and select Sam’s Club locations in September.
