When Pigs Fly - Smokin Joe's Rib Ranch - Davis, OK - Figurative Public Sculpture on Waymarking.com

Most of us have heard of the expression "when pigs fly". It's used to speak of things that are not likely to happen. Charlene Dargay has given this definition: "“When pigs fly” is used to describe an impossible thing, something that will never happen. It’s often used humorously or sarcastically, especially as a comment on extreme ambition or deluded self-assurance. Similar: when hell freezes over." On the front porch of the terrific BBQ restaurant, Smokin Joes, there is a sculpture made of sheet metal depicting this Pig expression. The pig is all metal. His body is painted yellow, and his ears and nose are pink. And then, you notice a set of wings protruding out of his back. Funny. We got a kick out of seeing this unlikely sculpture.
