Coachella: where pigs fly

It would be easy to write a story about the amazingness of Coachella or the post-festival shenanigans so we resisted the temptation. Until now - this story was too funny not to share. Goldenvoice, the organizers of the festival offered a $10,000 reward for the return of something valuable - Roger Waters' giant inflatable pig. We hoped that some scallywags stole it in a moment of inspired anararchy, but in fact it broke itself loose during Waters' headlining set.

Here's the transcript of the news story on the Pasadena, CA-based radio station, KPCC, but here's a worthwhile excerpt:

Coachella: ....It's about a two-story house, about that high – and the width of a couple of buses.
KPCC Radio: "In addition to the 10,000 bucks, the pig finder will get four lifetime tickets to the Coachella Music Festival."

We were gathering a SEEN search party for that pig when we heard two lucky couples had already found the pig, split in two. They're sharing the $10,000 reward. But what about the free Coachella tix?
