RAVE: Pigs in Cruisers

I love getting a good chuckle on a Friday morning, which is why I loved this golden nugget I came across on Yahoo, as reported by Reuters:

"Inmates working at a Vermont correctional unit's print shop managed to sneak a prank image of a pig into a state police crest that is emblazoned on police cars, and 30 cruisers sported the design for the last year, officials said on Thursday.

The official crest depicts a spotted cow against a background of snowy mountains, but the inmates' version featured one of the cow's spots shaped like a pig in an apparent reference to the pejorative word for police, [a] state police spokeswoman said."


Inmate adds pig image to Vt. police cruiser decals

Thirty police cars? And no one noticed for an entire year?

Oh my word. Fricking hilarious!

Of course, Vermont police officials got all sanctimonious about it, stating that it dishonoured the memory of all police officers who had died in the line of duty upholding law and order.

Oh, please.

They're just bloody embarrassed that a bunch of cons were able to do such a sly thing and it wasn't spotted (or, at least, reported) for a whole year.

I can just imagine how those inmates must have laughed their heads off as they plotted their porcine scheme and saw their works of art go forth...priceless.

Pigs in cruisers - I love it.
