Bristol's claim to fame? A pig

Mayor Art Ward gave Daisy 2 -- Farmer Paul Minor's second "reading pig" -- a key to the city this week.
The mayor said that Daisy, who died last month at the age of 14, and Daisy 2 have become the most famous pigs in the world through their travels to "Pig Out on Reading."
He said he gave the pig a key to city because of the magnitude of its achievements.
Minor said he intends to keep heading out across the country with the potbellied pig to promote reading.
"We still hope to be traveling for many more years," he said.
Daisy 2, lying on a blanket in a large baby carriage, didn't seem to care much.
He just grunted loudly.
