Pig wrestling (also known as pig scramble and with the variants hog wrestling and greased pig catching) is a game sometimes played at agricultural shows such as state and county fairs, in which contestants, try to hold onto a pig. In the most common version, a team of four members chases a domestic pig around a fenced-off mud pit and attempts to place it in a barrel, in a race against the clock. In some events the pigs are greased with lard (pig fat), vegetable or mineral oil in order to make catching the pig even more difficult.
