Sam Pittman is so proud he can make his slobbering hog turn purple if he wants

Sometimes you just gotta make that hog turn purple.

The world of LED lighting is a wonderful place. If you’ve been locked into a world of bright white, warm yellow, or the gamut of dimmer switch brightnesses for most of your life, honestly it can be overwhelming when suddenly you have access to almost any color you can imagine.

Arkansas head coach Sam Pittman is simply in awe of the things he can do with his hog when he’s at his lake house.

We don’t know the exact mechanism behind Pittman’s hog lighting, but it’s safe to say he has access to lighting this hog exactly how he wants. I don’t think it’s a coincidence there are 16 teams in the SEC and he has access to 16 different hog colors, which means he can have this thing bright purple by the time LSU comes around on the schedule.

I’m just happy to see someone be so thrilled with a hog they have. Most men in their 60s are really self-conscious about their hogs and feel the need to get increasingly bigger trucks to feel better about themselves.

Keep letting that hog shine, Coach Pittman.
