The Name
A 'tip of the cap' to Springdale, and Northwest Arkansas', poultry heritage. The poultry industry is very important to our region and the debut of the Growlin' Chickens is a way to show our support and hope our fans enjoy the fun twist we put on the weekend.
The Growl
All chickens can make a growling noise, usually when disturbed or to protect their nest. The Growlin' Chickens will likely let out this warning sound as we defend our home 'nest' at Arvest Ballpark with ferocity. #LETSGROWL
