Marlin Perkins could just have that Jim guy shoot it with a big tranquilizer dart from a helicopter.

Re: Big Boar
 

At that size, I don't think it can move that fast though.

Re: Big Boar
 

Anyone notice that "no workers from the co-op were present when the hog was weighed."

And even the reporter from the Aniston Star hasn't seen it, tho the family did provide him with this "high quality" photochop - I mean job - for the article.

Oh well, we'll just have wait till the taxidermist is done with it. I'm sure he'll do it justice, maybe even as good as this one ...

Re: Big Boar
 

OH NOES!!!! I'm starting to smell the BS.:clapping:


The pig looks alot smaller than the other photo.

Re: Big Boar
 

Total chop!

Re: Big Boar
 

Might be real.

The dad looks like a total scum bag. :clapping:

Re: Big Boar
 

Yep I can see it the Dad's head is disproportional to his body just like the pigs in the first photo.:jump:

Re: Big Boar
 

BUWAHAHAHA!!!!!!:jump:

Re: Big Boar
 

Looking at the original photo, the KIDS shirt color/ clarity/ density/ of just him seem as if that portion was photographed in nice bright light, yet the PIG was photographed in subdued light
(i think)

MIGHT JUST BE A CHOP JOB)

also if you compare the relationship of the size of the kid to the pig in the first photo to the photo later on in this thread, the size relationship changes.

To be fair ( in the first photo ) if I photographed it with a very wide angle lens the proportion may look like that...


Makes you wonder

I just looked again (as a photographer) those (1st image) are 2 images chopped (for sure). I can't CHOP, or even handle this computer to well but those few of you who are also photographers (f5) AND those of you who are CHOP JOCKS i think can do a better job...

Re: Big Boar
 

WOW ! Size matters !

Re: Big Boar
 

Yea chop job

Pork Chop Job!


hahahahahahahahah:clapping:

Fred = own3d
 

OMG!:giggling:


FRUITHURST, Ala. ? The Mystery of the Monster pig appears to have been solved.

The 1,051-pound hog, shot and killed by 11-year-old Jamison Stone and the subject of a world-wide Web firestorm over the photo's authenticity, really is...


Fred.


That's "Fred" the pig, and according to Rhonda and Phil Blissitt their humongous hog escaped on April 29, four days before it was killed, according to the Star newspaper.

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,277097,00.html

"Did you see that pig on TV?" Phil Blissitt recalled Howell asking him. "I said, 'Yeah, I had one about that size.' He said, 'No, that one is yours.'
"That's when I knew."

Phil Blissitt purchased the pig for his wife as a Christmas gift in December of 2004. From 6 weeks old, they raised the pig as it grew to its enormous size.:crying:

Not long ago, they decided to sell off all of their pigs. Eddy Borden, owner of Lost Creek Plantation, purchased Fred.

Attempts by The Star to reach Borden were unsuccessful.
While Rhonda Blissitt was somewhat in the dark about the potential demise of her pet, Phil Blissitt said he was under the understanding that it would breed with other female pigs and then "probably be hunted."

Many other of their former pigs ? like their other farm animals ? had been raised for the purpose of agricultural harvest.

As the Blissitts recounted the events of the last two days, they told stories and made many references to the gentleness of their former "pet."

From his treats of canned sweet potatoes to how their grandchildren would play with him, their stories painted the picture of a gentle giant. They even talked about how their small Chihuahua would get in the pen with him and come out unscathed. :crying:

"But if they hadn't fed him in a while," Rhonda Blissitt said, "he could have gotten irate."

Phil Blissitt said he became irritated when they learned about all the doubters who said photos of Fred were doctored.

"That was a big hog," he said.

The information of the pig's previous owner came out on the same day that officials from the Fish and Wildlife concluded their investigation of the hunt. They concluded that nothing illegal happened under the guidelines of Alabama law.

Allan Andress, enforcement chief for the Alabama Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries Division, said they learned the hog's origin as the investigation unfolded.

As fellow gun / hunting rights advocates I want to encourage each of you to visit this site and at least post a one or two line positive comment about this boy's achievement.

When you visit the site that his Dad put up for him, first click on the negative comments that the fanatical liberal anti-hunting / anti-gun idiots have posted about this 11 year old boy.

I am simply outraged about this. I even registered on Ted Nugent's site to attempt to get him involved.

Check out the site, read the comments, and decide for yourself.
