Oh, dang.
Roger Waters' two story inflatable pig
somehow escaped during the final night of the Coachella music festival in California. (Just like the
Barack Obama campaign litter Rogers' people
spread across the desert floor during his show.) Damn the luck! But don't worry, the festival's PR people are on the case! Find the missing two story runaway Roger Waters icon and get four Coachella festival tickets ... for life! Act now and get the embarrassment of participating in an obvious PR stunt for free! Full press release after the jump ...

HEADLINER ROGER WATERS' SET
COACHELLA organizers are offering $10,000 and four (4) festival tickets for life in exchange for the safe return of the two-story inflatable pig that broke loose during Roger Waters' set on the final night (Sunday, April 27) of the 2008 COACHELLA VALLEY MUSIC & ARTS FESTIVAL.
