Dont need no stinkin prepoed pig!

I remember the story of the Menard Mafia boys from Alexandria deciding they could save money by buying the live pigs instead of the prepped ones for their annual pig roast. Picture a bunch of 30 y/o frat boys trying to figure out what to do with live pigs milling about. First you have to shoot them, then scald and scrape and clean, then start the roasting.

I'm not up for al of that. Paying for a prepped pig is worth it to me.
