Here in Cincinnati, a bunch of companies bought the pigs and had them painted by artist for a fun raiser. Pigs were displayed through out Cincinnati , Fountain Square, along the streets. The Reds had a couple of pigs to represent the BIG RED MACHINE DAYS. It was very much fun to find them.

Wow! I think he's kinda cute! We have the same thing here, but it's with cows. I made dh take a photo with the last one I saw. He thought I was absolutely nuts! (But he's learning, lol.)

I went to a place in central Florida last July that had horses done like this and earlier this month in Okinawa there was a cow exibit in a botanical gardens. These are so fun. I hope you get to go back and photograph many more little piglets.
I love it when a city does this, we have had Charlie Brown, Lucy, etc. here in St Paul (I do not live in Minneapolis) and it is such fun to get a map and track them all down. One city had Bison and another boots and another Dala Horses. Whee, a bit of the crazies is cool.
oh this type of art is very popular these days. Many cities choose a sculpture and comission artists to paint them then they are usually auctioned off to raise money for something. We had hokie birds in my hometown for Virginia Tech, A town here in PA did bears, I have heard of bulldogs in Georgia and Fish in the north west. I am sure there are many more. I bet you could photograph lots of different types of pigs there!
I had an appointment to day and afterwards drove into Bath city today to take a photo of the world famous circular street and look what i found!! A colourful pig sitting in the central gardens. there were pigs all over Bath. i must go back to visit and find out why they are there. I remember on a city visit to Cincinnati once there were lots of pig sculptures. Weird!!
