crazyjizzy Posted December 29, 2002 Posted December 29, 2002 Lets set the record straight: Probably the first climber to shoot slings at Index was Don Harder, way back in the seventies. The first climber to hit the slings on Princely Ambitions with a potato gun from the RR tracks was Rat in '93. Kit Lewis fired his gun at Index many times, most notibly his 50cal. muzzle loader on the Fourth of July '85. We fired towards the Lower Lump in the hopes of nailing Dick Cilley. Three well known NW climbers were responsible for greasing City Park. The PIG was hung four seperate times over four years, by a group of three core members, and two helpers. The first PIG was found by Fred Grafton, who suggested the deed to the core three. After the initial rigging, Dean re-rigged the PIG to near the tunnel. The second year , BIG MOUTH found a pig at the town dump. The third year the PIG was found up {Proctor Creek. Due to the fact that violence was possible between Fred and BIG MOUTH, there was no fourth year. Kit Lewis had NOTHING to do with the PIG(s), except when Dave Bale offered the protection of himself and Kit when a angry Fred Grafton was going to pound on a drunked little PIG rigger. Fred Grafton and drunken little PIG rigger are now buddies again! The van belonged to a drunken ruver guide named Otis, who left it there when it broke down. It accumulated alot of shit, including old tires and spray paint, which was burned up by a group of rowdies in '92. All night long the spray paint blew up. In the morning Steve Swenson was appaled.

Figger_Eight Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 There are some pretty funny pictures of that pig out there. Quote
Matt Posted December 30, 2002 Posted December 30, 2002 The cool quote I heard was something to the effect of: I won't mess with your rap placed bolts if you don't mess with my lead placed pig! Quote
