A signature Pink Floyd giant inflatable pig escaped its tether and flew away during the Coachella music festival last weekend.
The tattered pig came to ground in the driveways of two families in La Quinta, California. The families will split a $10,000 reward offered by Coachella organizers. They will also share four life tickets to the annual music festival. Link -via Digg
Former Pink Floyd star Waters said "that's my pig" as it drifted away during Sunday's gig.
Coachella spokeswoman Marcee Rondan said: "It wasn't really supposed to happen that way."
The pig was tethered to the ground with ropes and floated away as Waters was playing one of the versions of Pink Floyd song Pigs.

Didn't something like this happen on that episode of The Simpsons from about ten years ago that was set at Lollapalooza?
