September 29, 2006: Entertaining pigs
 The Royal Melbourne Show, in the city of the same name, is where the original IotD diving pig came from. Here it is this year and the pigs are racing. I believe we've had racing pigs before, but none so impressive.  They still have diving in Melbourne. Now, interestingly...  This shot showed up in Yahoo!'s Most Emailed images, and it turns out to be from a diving pig exhibition...  In Nanjing, China! Uhh... is that pig tattooed?  Meanwhile in Deerfield, NH, it's the "Pig Scramble". The kids have three minutes to catch one of the piglets in a ring and get it into the bag.  I'm sure they'd rather be diving. |

I was expecting to see an audience of pigs watching some sort of performance...

Wow, nice list Emrikol. It looks like the rounding-the-bend photo has been well-established as the pig race money shot.

While reading Charlettes Web did anyone else catch themselves thinking "these farmers are the dumbest people on the planet" ?
