From the “We Can’t Make This Stuff Up” Dept.: 70-year-old Oregon farmer eaten by his hogs (w/Video)

[UPDATE: I had to completely rewrite this section. I was laughing so hard when I originally posted I forgot to edit and it read horribly  Sorry guys, but S**T Happens.] ;>}

Sounds like a headline from Weekly World News or The National Inquirer, Right?  Well this actually comes from NBC News.

For those of you old enough, remember when inquired about someones location, the old wise-ass answer was always,“He went to S**T and the hogs ate him”  

Well, with respect to farmer Gardner – T believe I am not disrespecting the dead when I say here is a true story that seems to have transpired along the same lines, except for the differing choresthey were engaged in at the time of  the incident, the two  met with the same disgusting fate,   Sorry guys, no video this time. . . .EDITOR

Then I thought, Why not a video. A video to kind of help shake that story off.  And I knew the perfect one. . . EDITOR

There are many videos similar to this on YouTube, but this one has the original WB title cards. This cartoon clip was intended for adult viewers, mostly Warner Bros. employees.
