The forward-backward asymmetry A_{FB}^t in top quark production at theTevatron has been seen to be anomalously large both by CDF and D0. Parton-levelasymmetries as large as 50%, with a large error bar, have been extracted fromthe data. It is important to measure other quark asymmetries if possible, asthese would help clarify the source of any new physics behind A_{FB}^t. In thisnote it is argued that asymmetries in b\bar b and c\bar c should be accessibleto the Tevatron experiments, using the full data sets. A crude study suggeststhat muon asymmetries in high-p_T dijet events, with suitable use of muon andjet kinematics and (inefficient) heavy flavor tagging, might allow detection ofA_{FB}^c and A_{FB}^b ~ 0.3. Were it possible to make heavy flavor tagging athigh p_T efficient, or mistags rare, then the sensitivity of the measurement ofA_{FB}^b could be significantly better.
