This is in front of where I live...I live above the chocolate box. Daily I have to weave around the oblivious people congregated around the pig. Taking pictures, taking up the sidewalk, taking away my sanity.... urg.
Everyone is so down on the pigs around here at the Stranger. They're kinda ugly but they're about to be auctioned off in a few weeks to benefit the Pike Place Market foundation. Don't blow 'em up. Let people with too much money buy ugly non-art that benefits our city.

i sat next to a disgusting pig today on the concourse level of Pacific Place. It was "bubblicious pig" or something, and the gimmick was, pieces of chewed gum were randomly stuck all over it. who wouldn't want to buy that?
Pigs aren't all that clever this year, except for this one:
“Prosciutto & Melon Pig”

It's supposed to be in front of the Federal Building according to the printed map, but I can't find it on the online map. Hmmm...
It's basically a pig cut open like a cantaloupe and served with prosciutto. It's clever and creepy and I noticed they hid it upstairs during the Pigs on Parade kick-off. I liked it.

I thought it was tar. From all the smokers.
Who wouldn't want to buy that? I know I would.
I would buy that too, Ryan. For a dollar!
It's outside a chocolate shop. 1+1=poo.
more fiber and less bigotry :)
I call it the "scat pig". It sits in front of a chocolate store.
In fact, Savage, I sent YOU an email directly about it about a month ago.
"Move over eggs! Bacon just got a new best friend: fudge!"
When are those things going away?
When we all get together and blow them up.

I sorta like when they match up with the businesses they are close to
You're not the guy with the giant parrot are you, No. 10?
@7- I jsut spit salad on the key board when I read that- thanks- funniest thing I've read all day!
@12 ...nope, that's Mac the apt. manager.
That PIG must be taking the diet pill Alli. I have to see that pig everyday, I hate it.
Complete with a casual bondage mask and look of yearning for more!
