Blue Boy

Pencil_state_fair

Brother Will Rogers, Claremore Lodge 53, Claremore, Oklahoma, once refused to eat a co-star.  In the 1933 movie "State Fair," Rogers worked with "Blue Boy," a champion hog. Blue Boy was so temperamental during the filming that Director Henry King gave him to Rogers to slaughter and eat. Brother Rogers instead donated Blue Boy to an agricultural college.
