Razorback Hog Fayetteville, AR |

Razorback Hog [gone] Benton, AR |
Hogeye the Dancing Hog Fayetteville, AR |
||
There were two of these small Razorback Hog statues installed on poles in front of I-30 Concrete & Sales. The business had closed but these were still there in 2019. They were gone by 2022. The University of Arkansas in Fayetteville uses the razorback hog as its mascot. Images of "Big Red" appear throughout Arkansas.
This statue of Hogeye the Dancing Hog is 25 feet tall. According to the legend, Hogeye was originally a human magician. He turned himself into a Razorback Hog and got stuck. The copper statue was created by Eugene Sergeant and installed in 2018 in front of Hogeye, Inc. For more, see this website. [map] Another Razorback Hog sculpture in Fayetteville created by Dick Idol and titled Wild Band of Razorbacks was installed next to Donald W. Reynolds Razorback Stadium in 2018. |
Razorback Hog Berryville, AR |
|
This Razorback Hog is installed on a trailer and is or was most likely used in parades. It appears that his legs moved somehow. This guy is located near Country Bazaar Honey but I don't know if there is any relationship with this business. Does anyone know more about this statue? [map] |
Lord Snort Healdsburg, CA |
||
The 32-foot-long, steel Lord Snort wild boar sculpture was created by Bryan Tedrick for the 2016 Burning Man festival. It was later installed in Geyserville, CA. It 2016, it was moved here to the Soda Rock Winery which burned down in 2019. This sculpture remains. [map] |
Javelinas Sedona, AZ |
|
These life-sized Javelinas are installed in front of the Pink Adventure Center (Pink Jeep Tours). They were created as part of the Javelinas on Parade art project from 2005 which featured 50 pairs of these statues created by Barbara Brown and painted or decorated differently for various businesses. This one is titled "Hairalina" and was customized by Liam Herbert. Although javelinas are not related to pigs or hogs, I'm including them in this section since they are similar looking. For more, see this website. [map] |
