I love it that I can come on here and make a comment about a movie, and someone joins the thread who has actually spoken with the director. 

I love that a discussion will happen, and someone will post or PM who has firsthand knowledge of the situation.

The degrees of separation are very low when you are a part of this online community.

Stuff like that has happened often over the years.

I'm pretty new to hogville compared to most of you, but I like hogville because there is never a dull moment, or the same exact stuff being regurgitated over and over again with nothing new to bring to the table. There is a lot of the same old beat a dead horse crap, but there's alwAys new material to discuss and debate and talk about too. And that's refreshing.

It's a great one stop source for the latest info on what's going on within the Razorback program. I don't have to go to other boards, other websites, twitter, yadda yadda to keep updated. As far as the discussion, there's always a great variety of subjects to choose from as far as what you want to read/discuss and what you don't.

If the South should lose, it means that the history of the heroic struggle will be written by the enemy, that our youth will be trained by Northern school teachers, will be impressed by all of the influences of history and education to regard our gallant dead as traitors and our maimed veterans as fit subjects for derision.

There's a lot of activity, and it's really one of the best free fan sites out there. Go to a few others, even some of the SEC boards. The layout and/or activity levels are downright atrocious.

Also, look at the birthdays today. We have a member who is turning 73, and one who is turning 25. We have fans right here in Fayetteville, and some in New York and Chicago. A lot of diversity among Hog fans can be found here.

Yeah, it's like a 24-hour online Tailgate.  And I love that people serving us overseas can connect in a small way to Arkansas and the Hogs.  My favorite part about game threads.

I'm grew up in Central America, and in my 20s lived there for a while also.  I would have given anything for a place like this back then.

Right there you go, this is totally a Hog fan haven, even though we drive each other insane a lot.

Also, Gridironhistory is pretty cool. Fayettechill's posts are always informative. We have a lot of fans that try really hard and bring a lot to the table, for no reason other than they love football (even when we suck hard).

Have to say that's not always true. ;)


Hogville keeps me up to date on what's happening with the hogs, and gives a wide array of perspective on razorback sports.

Plus there's guys like LSUFan and kingofdequeen, and many others, who keep me entertained with their humor.

I like the fact you can hear so many perspectives of the same thing. People see things so differently and its always interesting to hear how others view things so much differently than I do.

Is that why you be so hairy?..........chupacabra and whatnot...............


SE Arkansas these days is a hotbed for LSU-mongering locals, so I don't really have anyone else to talk Hog sports with.

Actually, nobody down here talks to me, period.

It is a wonderful stress reliever.   It provides many laughs to such a short life, not to mention that it is very informative on The Razorbacks which is one of many things we all have in common.

I think he's really funny. And btw, slapstick is an exaggerated physical type of comedy. So unless you can see Ponderin' while he posts here, I don't think you mean slapstick. I'd say it's more observational type comedy.

My favorite thing is the unintentional humor, like misspelling words. And recently someone actually started a thread asking if  The Beatles or Michael Jackson was better AND SOME PEOPLE VOTED FOR MICHAEL JACKSON.

Hogs are global. I lived in Asia for years and ran into a lot of Hogs. One morning I was at the hotel picking up a client when I heard this strong Georgia accent. Sure enough it was Coach Broyles.

Information.  From videos of potential recruits, stats to make things more intriguing, to people with first hand knowledge of the situation in question, this site provides more information than most people realize.  Even if you strip away some of the caustic negativity that runs rampant at times, it still provides the most free Hog related information in one place that you're going to find. 

Think about it...how many times do you see anything on the evening news that you didn't see here first?  That speaks volumes of the people here who have a pulse on what is going on, even if it doesn't always include what people WISH was available here, such as a "behind the scenes" perspective of coaching searches, etc.  Those days are over.... 
I've never wanted a Hog coach to be successful more than I do for Pittman.  He's one of the good guys.
