Gil Thorp by Henry Barajas and Rachel Merrill for March 12, 2013

It’s pig vs. peacock. Too bad it’s not last season. Milford fans could set up a competing chant of “Slap the tat!”

Outlandish!

All we need is Larry Lujack an Little Tommy and Animal Stories for this strip.

We’ve had the debate as to where Milford is located. With all these farm animals showing up I’m thinking Indiana or Iowa. How else could we justify letting a pig in a high school gym during a basketball game?

Not much credit to the advance scouts if they are just finding out about this @ tipoff! This is obviously important information Gil needs to know. He is a peacock believer after all.

Hamilton = Ham = Pig

Marty Moon rats out Hamilton to PETA.

Small little porker, isn’t he? Soon, the Fighting Hams will chant the piggie’s name, Ar-nold Ziffel!! Mr. Haney and Oliver Douglas lead the cheers.

Can’t wait to see the next opponent if Milford wins. What will it be?“Tip the cow!”“Kick the mule!”“Shear the sheep!”

@jailthomasGotta be Ohio. I live near Milford and Goshen and Hamilton aren’t far away.

And yet, I still keep reading this strip. People at work are making fun of me, especially the guy who owns the pet pig.

I’m begging for pitchers and catchers…

That pig looks pretty demonic.

Sorry guys. The creator based this on the town of New Milford CT.

P1- Luhm’s cousin doing a nice job on the front windows of Hamilton’s gym

Wearing home whites on the road again? Hasn’t that happened all year?

Is this Gil Thorp or a Geico ad?

Michigan has a Milford and a Hamilton, Goshen in Indiana too. I think the kids are really say “Pet the pig”. Can this strip get anymore silly? I doubt it.

Good thing they’re not playing Oregon State or Oregon. Could have some with Beavers and Ducks

I thought Hamilton is the Tiger Cats, eh?

Milford is dead, everyone knows a pig stops a cock cold…

What is the deal with Milford never having a home game? Has their gym been condemned or something?

You apparently never met my ex-wife :-D
