Razorbacks Won't Be Spreading Swine Flu

When VHI does the episode for 2009 in their series of “I Love the 2000s” a couple years from now, Swine Flu will certainly have its own little piece of the program. It has taken the country by storm, despite being less dangerous than the common flu. Our Vice President has remained completely calm by telling his family not to travel or go into cramped quarters, such as airplanes, a warning that should help boost the sales of fashionable fascemasks.

But in the south, they’re taking the fight against the Swine Flu to the pigs themselves, as evidenced by this photo from the campus of Arkansas, which shows the Razorback doing its part to stop the spread of H1N1:

Well played by the students in Fayetteville, who have provided some levity to this overblown situation. The only Swine Flu humor I’ve seen today that can rival this photo comes from Holy Taco’s Twitter:
