It was a s"pig"tacular day for the winner of the Allen County Fair best dressed pig.
This year's first place winner was the Griffin Schwartz, as his pig played the lion to his ringmaster. This annual competition is something the kids in the swine program look forward to each year as they try and think up creative costumes for themselves and their pigs. This year we saw Beauty in the Pig, a pig-flavored Tootsie Roll, the Pig cheerleader and "Pig"casso. According to Schwartz, getting his pig in the costume was the easiest part of his 4H project.
“The hardest part was finding what it likes to eat, and the easiest part was doing the best dressed pig," says Griffin Schwartz.
Schwartz is looking forward to next year's Allen County Fair where he can enter his pig again.
