[IDave]

Recognize it?

Nah.
Should I?


Someday I'm gonna have a pig. (Probably the blue and white one that is 1/4 mile away from my house).

 

[cruiseroutfit]

Nah.
Should I? ..

I didn't know if it used to be yours

I got it via horse-trading with dieselcruiserhead... not sure where he scored it.

Pigs Rule!

Why "Big Bear"? More appropriate would be "Big Pig" or "Bad Boar" or sumpin to that effect... Nice piggy!

Good question... I think we watched Super Troopers the weekend we brought her in... The "Big Bear" tune just stuck

Nice pig Kurt. Looks just like mine, the one I drove all the way from Omaha to your neck of the woods to buy last March. Wish I could have found one closer, but, oh well. Maybe now you'll stock a few more pig parts!! Good luck, keep the pics coming. Hodag
