Well, you don't see this every day.

Rick Lindholm of Billings was visiting his mother on the 1400 block of Parkhill Drive Saturday when the hail storm blew through about 3 p.m.

“We were sitting on the porch watching the storm," he said. "I had my phone out to get some hail video, and then I see something and I think, ‘Holy cow, what is that? It’s a pig.”

A neighbor’s pet pig has escaped its pen and was making a run for it.

“It was squealing because it was getting whacked by hail, the poor little guy,” Lindholm said.

Some neighbors found the pig cowering under a car and got a rope around him so they could lead him to safety once the storm passed.

Lindholm shared the video on his Facebook page Saturday evening and since then it has been shared more than 2,200 times and been viewed more than 108,000 times.

I've watched this video several times and have a really good giggle each time. Poor little pig--but he is so-o-o-o-o-o cute!

Seriously now

Now if a strong gust have wind had picked him up, then a pig really DID fly!
