Arkansas assistant tweets curious Grand Theft Auto parody

One Arkansas assistant linked the Razorbacks with Grand Theft Auto, that game about stealin’ cars and murderin’ women of ill repute.

That tweet is by Razorbacks offensive quality control coach Patrick Doherty.

GTA actually might not be the worst game to let Arkansas players get their hands on -- your health meter drops a little bit when your character gets into motorcycle crashes, serving as a precautionary measure warning those around the program about the dangers of unsafe riding.

Personally, I used to really like the GTA games when I was 15, so I have no qualms with this, except that GTA: Fayetteville would be kinda boring. There’s really nothing here connecting the images of Arkansas football on the cover to GTA, everybody’s favorite game for unbridled city-based killing sprees, besides the distinctive font and photo-collage. But its still maybe not the thing you want to associate your program with? My favorite part is that the hypothetical game is “Rated A, for ARKANSAS.”

You know who likes the Grand Theft Auto games? Craig James.
