San Jose, California: Neon Dancing Pig

The Stephan's Sausage sign with its happy, dancing pig cheerfully encouraging you to eat him and his friends because they're "pure pork" is about to become no more. Already his light has been dimmed (and without warning, hmmf) by his new owner. Stephan himself has retired and sold the factory and the sign. The factory will be torn down. Happily the sign will live on in a museum (or so the buyer promised after public outcry). However, if you want a last snapshot of the happy pig in his original setting now is the time to take it as he could go any day. I suggest sunset for the best lighting. The piggy can be found at the intersection near the Poor House Bistro and right next door to the San Jose Caltrain station.
