I can only say I've seen different three legged pig jokes... not just
that one.

Here's an alternate (one of many)... Hey maybe this should be a Three
Legged Pig thread! In fact, consider it done.

This joke is Googled, of course...

While visiting his flock in the country, a preacher happens to see a
pig walking around on 3 legs. The preacher stops by the farm and asked
the farmer. My son, why does your pig have only 3 legs?

Well, preacher, says the farmer, this pig is very special to my family
and me. Just 2 months ago, the jack fell while I was working beneath
my tractor. As the tractor was crushing me, I yelled. When he heard
my voice, *that* pig rushed to my rescue, dug me out and pulled me
away from the tractor.

That's commendable says the preacher - but....

Hey, that's not all says the farmer; Last week my house caught fire
and *that* pig pulled my 2 young children to safety. It even received
a medal of valor, from the mayor!

I understand says the preacher, but you still haven't explained why
the pig has a missing leg!

The farmer says back to the preacher: "This pig is very special to us
and we just can't bring ourselves to eat it all at once".
