Reward Offered For Roger Waters Pig

After that life imitating art moment on Sunday night at Coachella when Roger Waters flying pig took off and kept going, the Coachella organizers have now offered a reward for its return.

The trademark Pink Floyd pig was let loose during the song 'Pigs' during Waters set.

In what mimicked a Simpsons' episode, the pig kept on going.

You might recall that in the Homerpolloza episode of the Simpsons, the Pink Floyd pig was let loose and lost by Homer Simpson.

On Sunday at Coachella, it was the real deal.

It is not the first time that happened.

In 1988 on the Pink Floyd Australian tour, one rogue record company executive in Sydney thought it would be funny and good for publicity to free the pig.

"Panic" set in when the pig "accidentally" floated over Sydney airport and created havoc with air traffic control.

The reward for returning the pig this time is $10,000 and lifetime tickets for 4 people to Coachella.
