SAN MARCOS, TX- The Hayes county biannual fair won't be the same this year. Rancher Marc Givens of San Marcos TX, owner of Snouty the multi Filthy- Award winner is besides himself. Apparently, Mr. Given's city grand kids were in town visiting for the summer break from Austin. They accidentally left a portable pool uncovered when the mishap happened. Snouty was busy rolling around in his own knee-deep filth pretending not to pay the youngsters any mind as they splashed around happily in the small pool. The spectacle of carefree kids must have sparked Snouty's interest and he immediately promised himself to give the splashing a go and see how it holds up against shit-lolling. As soon as the children pranced away hopping and skipping every which way with glee, it was off to the races for the veteran sow. He took a majestic dive into the crystal clear refreshing water and did some belly-rolls before quickly realizing how unpleasant it felt and jumping out. With the Filth Contest just a day away, the damage was insurmountable. By accidentally cleaning himself, the pig, a Wessex Saddleback, was a sight no pig farmer should ever have to behold. Even the white stripe around his neck was now visible while the black on the rest of his body shone in the sunlight with ...cleanliness. Despite incessantly apologizing to their grandfather, the kids' parents were called down to pick them up and Mr. Givens has vowed never to speak to them again. He's still the pun of endless jokes to this day with the favorite one that goes: If Mr. Clean had a pig...it'd probably resemble Snouty. Of course the townsfolk only belch out these insensitive jests behind Givens' back for fear of reprisal..the good rancher is known for his unusual marksmanship and fondness of his World War I dull and rusty Ghanian Buckshot Pistol.
