Pig wrestling cancelled in Montana

A pig wrestling competition at a county fair in northern Montana has been cancelled after the porkers eluded fair officials trying to round them up for the event.

Fair office manager Shirley Embleton says the wild pigs spend the year on a 1.6-kilometer free-range property along the Marias River and about 30 are captured the Friday of the scheduled event.

But this year, fair officials were only able to locate one boar, despite flying the river. The event was postponed until Saturday, but neither the landowner nor fair officials could locate the absent pigs.

(The funniest part of this story is that this article was found in the Manila, Philippines newspaper – Russ)
