Moment of Silence that pays tribute to those who perished in the events of 9/11/01 including the 7 from the State of Arkansas and 16 from State of Texas
Following the anthem, the Bulldog Flight team will perform a flyover.

Stadium Light Show & Patriotic Sing-a-Long

2nd Half Kickoff Lightshow: We need to get DWRRS back rocking and the 2nd half will start with a stadium-wide light show to the song Zombie Nation.
3rd Quarter Sing-A-Long and Lightshow to Lee Greenwood’s Proud to Be an American. A synchronized red, white and blue light show will play while all 76,000 of us sing along to this patriotic fan-favorite. This light show will use your screen’s phone, not the flashlight like normal.
