pig racing

Hogs competing speedwise

Pig racing is a novelty event, typically at county fairs or amusement parks, where pigs run a short track—sometimes with small jockeys, sometimes chasing an Oreo cookie.

It's entertainment rather than serious competition: The kids loved the pig racing at the state fair.
