Missing Pig Becomes PR Opportunity

The pig that went missing in Warwick has a new ally in its fight to, uh, be found: The Lehigh Valley IronPigs! The Phillies’ new AAA affiliate is offering four free tickets and an all-you-can-eat meal to anyone who turns in the pig.

Also, if the pig is found, the club wants to host it and its owner at a game as MVPs.

“I’m not into baseball, but I certainly appreciate everyone’s efforts,” Magidson said. “That one person who is more interested in baseball just might read (about the IronPigs offer) and might be the person who sees that little piggy in somebody’s back yard.”

Oh, sad. Looks like the animal psychic that’s been hired — I missed this yesterday, but I forget what blog pointed it out to me, sorry — will have to do. The pig is alright, the psychic says! “I’m being told that Mirabelle is in a warm and safe place and that she is still alive.” Let’s hope everything turns out alright.
