LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - A giant inflatable pig that went missing from a Southern California music festival at the weekend has been found in tatters in a desert town.

The pig, which has been a signature Pink Floyd stage prop since its appearance on the 1977 cover of "Animals" and the song "Pigs on Wings," broke away from its tethers on Sunday night at Coachella Valley Arts and Music Festival.

I went to the Roger Waters show in Dallas on Friday night, and they let the giant pig fly away there. I thought they were supposed to do let it go, but I guess it was an accident?

The pig was just doing its impression of Roger Waters' career.........disappearing into obscurity.

So glad to see David Gilmour having the success he is, after having to deal with Waters titanic ego all of those years.
