Two guys are driving down a country road behind a pickup truck when a pig falls out of the truck and rolls into a squealing heap by the side of the road. They stop to check out the pig and find that other than being shaken up a bit it’s OK, so they load the pig in the back seat and take off to catch the truck. Well, of course they’re speeding and of course a state trooper stops them. They explain about how the pig fell out and how they’re trying to catch the truck and the trooper says, “Look, you’re never gonna catch that truck, but I’ll tell you what. Your hearts are in the right place so I’ll give you a break. There’s a zoo down the road a few miles. You take the pig to the zoo and I’ll forget about the speeding ticket.” They agree and they’re gone.
A few days later the trooper sees the same two guys driving toward town with the pig, again in the back seat, this time wearing a baseball cap. He pulls them over and is greeted with a cheery, “Hello Officer.”
‘I thought… I told you two… to take that pig… to the zoo.” He says sternly.
“We did. And he had such a good time, that today we’re taking him to a ball game.”
