Will Carroll @toonheadsfanatic.bsky.social · Aug 1

Thanks to growing up on The Muppet Show at an early age, I now have a great appreciation and love for old fashioned english music hall and vaudeville numbers. Is that normal?

What kind of evil person would stoop so low to hack a muppet fansite?!?! What is wrong with you?!?!

Best luck to the Whole toughpigs team, I hope you can get back to your normal, fun, non-hacked site soon!!!

ToughPigs @toughpigs.com · Jul 28

As you may have noticed, ToughPigs has not been reliably accessible in recent weeks. We are working on the issue, and we thank you for your patience. (Also, we hope this link actually works.)
