Arkansans will gain front-row access to former President, Dallas Cowboys owner, general manager
CONWAY, Ark. (Arkansas TV) — As part of its Arkansas Live initiative, Arkansas TV is the livestreaming provider for the Little Rock Touchdown Club 2026 season, giving viewers statewide a front-row seat in the room with veteran coaches, NFL Hall of Famers, analysts and others.
Previously unannounced, the Little Rock Touchdown Club has added two prominent Arkansas figures to its schedule for Monday, Oct. 12. Former Arkansas Governor and the 42nd President of the United States Bill Clinton and Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager and co-captain of the 1964 Arkansas Razorbacks National Championship football team Jerry Jones will join the club at Simmons Bank Arena. Arkansas Live will provide livestreaming coverage of the Little Rock Touchdown Club at arkansastv.gov/arkansaslive.
This special event is expected to draw approximately 3,000 people, including several high school football teams, and will feature a performance by the Hot Springs High School Trojan Band.
Founded in 2004, the Little Rock Touchdown Club meets weekly this fall at the DoubleTree Hotel in downtown Little Rock, except on Oct. 12 during football season, featuring speakers ranging from college and professional football legends to ESPN hosts, SEC reporters and coaches. The weekly meetings will continue through Nov. 23.
Bill Clinton – Former Governor of Arkansas, 42nd President of the United States.
Bill Clinton was born on Aug. 19, 1946, in Hope, Arkansas. He graduated from Georgetown University in 1968 and was awarded a Rhodes Scholarship to Oxford. He received a law degree from Yale in 1973. After graduation, he returned to Arkansas and taught law at the University of Arkansas before entering politics, where he was elected Arkansas Attorney General in 1976. Bill Clinton was elected governor of Arkansas in 1978 but lost a bid for reelection in 1980. He regained the governorship two years later and served until 1993. After a tough primary campaign, Bill Clinton won his party’s nomination and went on to defeat Republican President George H. W. Bush and independent candidate Ross Perot in the 1992 presidential race. When Clinton won reelection in 1996, he became the first Democrat since Franklin D. Roosevelt to win a second term.
Jerry Jones – Dallas Cowboys owner and general manager, Co-captain of 1964 Arkansas Razorbacks National Championship football team.
In one of the most dramatic eras of ownership in professional sports, Jerry Jones' stewardship of the Dallas Cowboys has brought unprecedented results and success to one of the world's most popular sports entities. His more than three-decade-long journey reached a rare pinnacle with his induction into the Pro Football Hall of Fame as a member of the 2017 class of enshrinees, making him just the 15th owner in history to earn a bust in Canton. Jones was an offensive lineman for College Football Hall of Fame coach Frank Broyles on the University of Arkansas’s 1964 national championship football team.
