West Point, Miss. -- When pigs fly, indeed. Kevin Pugh, 20, of Cedar Bluff, has been fined $279 for tossing a pig over the counter at the Holiday Inn Express in West Point on Nov. 12. Pugh pleaded guilty Tuesday in city court to a charge of disturbing the peace.
West Point Police Lt. Danny McCaskill has said Pugh didn't know the employees of the hotel. There was no evidence intoxication was a factor.
No one was hurt, including the pig, officers said.

"This was the silliest thing I've ever seen," McCaskill said. "Almost every officer we had was involved because the incidents kept happening at different hours." McCaskill said there have been four late-night incidents involving animal-tossing at West Point businesses. Twice a pig was tossed and two of the incidents involved possums.
All four of the disturbances took place between 2 a.m. and 4 a.m., McCaskill said.

It starts with cow-tippin' but never ends there. Now these guys are pig-slingin' and possum-chunkin'. I see redneck-rehab in their futures.

Everyone knows that Bryan Meat Packers is located in West Point, Mississippi. Take that pig and sell it to the packers ASAP...quick $$$. Now it would be something if they left topped out steers in the rooms as payment!!

Poor pig, glad he wasn't hurt. Arnold Ziffel would never stay at a Holiday Express.

Did the same Bubba toss all the pigs and possums, or is he just the designated rap taker for the entire critter tossing gang?

I thought the same thing (about Bryan).
I figure I have a good chance of eating this pig in a ham sandwich soon, since we always buy Bryan lunchmeats.

If the same people run that HI Express that run
90% of the hotels and motels in MS.
Throwing a "pig" at them may well be a Federal hate crime.

All is well w/ me and mine.
BTW, I'm still trying to decide whether I'd rather be hit with a possum or a pig.
Pig = heavier, more likely to bruise.
Possum = stinkier, meaner, sharper teeth, more likely to have rabies.
I think I'll take the pig, please.

"I think I'll take the pig, please."
That would be my choice, as well.
Getting hit with a possum never ends well.
