The other day, my friend Evan (www.wtfcincy.com) pinged me to let me know he'd found a piggy. It's been a while since we featured one, so I was thrilled when Evan said he'd write it up for us!After dropping off my in-laws at the airport, Sara and I went to the Florence area to hit up a Best Buy and see about finding a cheap laptop to replace our old one that just died. After giving Big Blue $500, we realized neither of us had eaten yet and decided to give Karlo's Bistro Italia a try. When we walked in, I noticed one of the Flying Pigs in the entry way. I asked our waitress if they had any information about the pig, but all she knew was that the restaurant bought it from the city of Cincinnati. There was no plaque attached to the pig... The only piece of information was a painting of the pig with the name "Sow-vatore Pastavino".
According to the Big Pig Gig site, this is number 279, done by Mary Beth Dowlin. It was originally slated to be in Sawyer Point.
