Get a picture in front of this popular work of public art. In Pike Place Market there's lots to see but this is one of the best highlights. Rachel The Pig is considered the market's mascot....

Rachel the Piggy Bank is the beloved mascot of Pike Place Market in Seattle, WA, serving as a public fundraiser for The Market Foundation since 1986. Weighing in at 550 pounds, this bronze cast piggy bank has raised over $200,000, with a local legend suggesting that rubbing her snout while making a donation brings good luck.
Created by sculptor Georgia Gerber, Rachel was named after a real pig that won the 1985 Island County Fair. Her cousin, Billie the Piggy Bank, joined the Market in 2011 and currently resides at the Pike Place Market Front.

Cute pig, but pretty impossible to get a clear picture with so many people at the market.
See a problem?
