Hogs’ open spring practice now closed due to weather, moved inside
Spring practice, HogFest canceled due to inclement weather and moved inside late Saturday morning.
FAYETTEVILLE, Ark – Fans who got up this morning hoping to make the drive to Fayetteville to take in the festivities surrounding a rather unusual spring game that’s not a spring game already, soon found out they would be saving their gas for other ventures.
Looks like Mother Nature has other plans today ⛈️⛈️⛈️
Due to lightning and storms, today’s practice will be inside and unfortunately closed to public.
We’re disappointed we won’t get to see you all today but we’ll see you soon!
