Here..Piggy..Piggy...Piggy...
Boy shoots biggest boar
May 27, 2007 12:00am
A WILD boar shot by an 11-year-old boy in Alabama was claimed to weigh a staggering 476kg and measure 2.74m from its snout to the end of its tail.If these measurements are accurate, Jamison Stone's trophy boar would be bigger than Hogzilla, the famed wild hog that grew to seemingly mythical proportions after being killed in South Georgia in 2004.
National Geographic experts, who unearthed Hogzilla's remains, believe the animal weighed about 363kg and was 2.4m long.
Regardless of the comparison, Jamison is revelling in the attention.
"It feels really good. It's a good accomplishment. I probably won't ever kill anything else that big," he said.
Jamison said he shot the huge animal eight times with a .50-calibre revolver and chased it for three hours before finishing it off with a point-blank shot.
Trees had to be cut down to bring Jamison's prize out of the woods.
Jamison's father, Mike Stone, is turning the beast into sausages.
"We'll probably get 500 to 700 pounds (317kg)," he said.
Jamison has been offered a small part in the new movie The Legend of Hogzilla.

Alabama Boy Shoots Monster Pig
Wild Boar Said To Weigh More Than 1,000 Lbs.
POSTED: 6:19 am CDT May 26, 2007
UPDATED: 6:33 am CDT May 26, 2007
MONTGOMERY, Ala. -- An Alabama boy has used his revolver on an enormous wild boar, killing the animal and sending the youngster on his way to 15 minutes of fame. Or more.Jamison Stone, 11, used a .50 caliber revolver to kill the pig at a commercial hunting preserve in east Alabama about three weeks ago. Stone, his father and two guides tracked the pig, but bagging the swine took about three hours of chasing through hilly woods before a final shot at point blank range brought it down for good.Stone's father, Mike Stone, said the animal weighed more than 1,000 lbs. and was more than nine feet long. The tusks measured five inches. It took heavy equipment to transport the animal out of the woods. The head went to a taxidermist. The rest is headed for the sausage factory. The Stones could net 500 to 700 lbs. of sausage meat.If the claims are accurate, the trophy boar eclipses Hogzilla, the famed wild hog that grew to seemingly mythical proportions before it was killed in south Georgia in 2004.The young hunter is headed for the network morning shows and the silver screen. Hogzilla is the subject of a movie and Stone has been offered a small part in the film, "The Legend of Hogzilla."

Wow, that's crazy! I'd probably be scared if I saw that big a boar, and an 11 year old killed it.

I saw something like this on television (about Hogzilla) where it was questioned whether the bore was actually fully wild or not. It could be that the father was a wild boar and that it mated with a domestic one, which are bred to be massive.

So he shoots the broad side of a barn with a gun 8 times and it's a huge accomplishment? I don't understand hunting.

Well I must give the kiddo' a little more cred than you do. You stand up to something that huge with a pistol (that you need to shoot 8 times) and there is some serious tightening of sphincter going on.

I don't know anything about pigs/boars, but that seems impossibly huge. I mean, that thing looks prehistoric, and it looks like it could take a freaking missle and keep on going.
Are we sure this is real?

But with a handgun. Meaning he had to be close. I guess if they're that big they probably don't move well, or maybe at all. But would YOU let your 11 year old get close enough to something like that to shoot it?
Weird.
Not to mention how amazing it is to have an 11 year old that can handle a 50 cal hand gun. That's a serious gun.

The dad and uncles were standing around holding high powered rifles, just in case. I'd pee myself like Fergie if I saw something that big in the wild.

I would imagine that thing moves pretty dang good man. It's not like a feed lot boar or something, it was running around through the woods, probably hunting bear.

I like girls too. I also like girls who like girls.
If everyone's a little queer, can't you be a little straight?

Let's explore this infatuation a little bit shall we? I like girls too.
What type of young ladies? Not asking for photos (well really I am) but instead some photos of desirable public ladies? Hmmmmmmm

I'm debating whether or not I should ask a multitude of questions, but wanting to preserve some element of class, I'm torn in twain. Then again, this is a forum of a bunch of pig sports fans, so crass behavior is what one would expect? no?.....(our many female posters excluded of course)
Let's just say, that we support the love between two graginas.... but we don't support what sike does in his free time.

What is a root? Anywho...I posted many examples of what I'm in to in the "hottest woman in the planet" thread. I'll throw in a pic of a "friend" just for fun.

From this I think we can safely assume, since this is the only rockets fan that's a girl that we know...
That all Female Rockets fans are lesbians. Right?
