These three little pigs sit in State College close to an alley. One little pig got stolen a few years ago, and whoever it was decided to bring it back. The people were really upset about it.

What a cute statue! I'm glad the little pig was returned.
Somebody just stole a crocodile (live!) from our local aquarium...
These are Pigtastic.. ;o)
interesting -- who would steal one??
I like the story very much. Is the pig the team mascot? I reckon that I'd like chanting "GO THE PIGS!
Wonderful story. The statue is so cute. Reminds me of a local BBQ Restaurant that has a pig statue out front. Every time we go there my grandson has to climb on the pig and act like he is riding it.
thats cute...
What an adorable statue, i wish i had it in my yard
Great Piggy Post.
Kris, No, pigs are not the mascot. They have the Nittany Lion for that. They put up the statue because pigs were roaming free on the streets back in the 1800-to 1900's.
Cute...
That is a great statue! Nice photo!
