On Sunday night, during Roger Waters' spectacular headlining set, a large pig-shaped balloon covered in graffiti hovered across the crowd. Then, a pyrotechnics display dazzled onlookers -- the massive crowd of fans went completely nuts. It was a spectacular event, until the balloon suddenly drifted off into the night sky. Did this happen on purpose? Apparently it didn't.

From a recent press release:

"COACHELLA ORGANIZERS OFFER $10,000 REWARD AND FOUR FESTIVAL TICKETS FOR LIFE IN EXCHANGE FOR THE SAFE RETURN OF THE INFLATABLE PIG THAT ESCAPED DURING SUNDAY HEADLINER ROGER WATERS' SET

COACHELLA organizers are offering $10,000 and four festival tickets for life in exchange for the safe return of the two-story inflatable pig that broke loose during Roger Waters' set on the final night (Sunday, April 27) of the 2008 COACHELLA VALLEY MUSIC & ARTS FESTIVAL. The pig escaped and floated into the desert sky just prior to the intermission between Roger Waters' back-to-back sets -- marking the only back-to-back COACHELLA sets by one artist in the critically acclaimed festival's history."
