The theme of this year's 20th annual Alapaha Station Celebration on Nov. 12-14 will be "The Legend of Hogzilla." A crowd of about 8,000 is expected.

"Everybody has an opinion about whether Hogzilla existed," said Sylvia Roberts, one of the festival's organizers. "We're not trying to prove or disprove it. That's why we're calling it 'The Legend of Hogzilla.' People can decide for themselves."

There will be Hogzilla parade floats, a hog-calling contest and a greased pig competition. Elizabeth Moore, of Glory Methodist Church, is going to take 125 pounds of meat, make a 250-foot-long sausage and proclaim it as the "world's longest hogzilla sausage."

"We're going to let the gate open and go hog wild," she said.
