Top Production at the Tevatron: The Antiproton Awakens

A long time ago, at a laboratory far, far away, the Fermilab Tevatron collided protons and antiprotons at $sqrt{s} = 1.96$ TeV. The CDF and D0 experiments each recorded datasets of about 10 fb$^{-1}$. As such experiments may never be repeated, these are unique datasets that allow for unique measurements. This presentation describes recent results from the two experiments on top-quark production rates, spin orientations, and production asymmetries, which are all probes of the $pbar{p}$ initial state.
