The nitty gritty of the Pig Olympics

Kids got down and dirty at one Topeka school Friday.

A "mud eating" contest was just one of many fun activities for the kids at Topeka Lutheran School's Center for Young Children.

In reality, it's just pudding.

It was all part of the 9th Annual Pig Olympics

There was lots of fun in store, including a bobbing for apples contest and plenty of arts, crafts and games, like snout ball pushing.

And, in true Pig Olympics fashion, who doesn't like splashing around in the mud?
