Husky Lee, pictured above, won the largest boar competition at the 2011 Minnesota State Fair, making him the largest boar in the state of Minnesota. they fed Terry an ice-cream pail of milk each day. On August 13, 2004, Terry weighed in at 1,220 pounds. That evening the Tabatts recived a phone call that said they had won the largest boar contest. Terry was on display at the Minnesota State Fair in 2004 as the largest pig in Minnesota. Ever since then the Tabatts have entered the largest boar contest at the Minnesota State Fair. Again in 2007, the Tabatts entered the contest with a four year old boar named Squeaky. Squeaky weighed in at 1,240 pounds. One of the rules for the contest states that once a pig makes a trip to the fair, they cannot go again. So the Tabatts get a new pig every few years to raise for the contest. Husky Lee has now followed in the footsteps of Terry and Squeaky by becoming the largest boar in Minnesota 2011. It is a passion of ours, said Barb It is fun. The whole family goes down to the fair to see the pig. I feel famous when we go down there with so many people asking questions. It is well worth it.
