''Pigtail Rag'' is a 1987 animated ShortFilm by Shawn Siegel and Pigtail Productions.

An anthropomorphic pig puts on a jacket, leaves his apartment building and walks down the street as the title song "Pigtail Rag" plays. Seeing a travel poster, he jumps into it and finds himself at a concert with a band performing, other animal couples dancing and a cute lady pig noticing him. They dance and then leave together.

The film [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QU5TIWQnF-E is available for viewing]] on Website/YouTube on Shawn Siegel's channel.

''Pigtail Rag'' turned up frequently in rotation as a filler segment in between programming on Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} during TheEighties and TheNineties.

!! ''Pigtail Rag'' has examples of the following tropes:

* AllThereInTheManual: The male and female pig are not named in the film itself. The videocassette features a short sales pitch for shirts that names them; the male is named Pete and the female Pumpkin.
* CreditsGag: The videocassette release opens with the standard copyright notice with the header "Pig Warning".
* MessyPig: Both this and GluttonousPig are averted as the anthropomorphic pigs in this film are not portrayed at such.
* MindScrew: A pig [[ItMakesSenseInContext jumps into a poster in a travel agency window]] and meets a female at a concert.
* NoPlotNoProblem: No real plot other than what's mentioned above.
* OneBookAuthor: Pigtail Productions produced this short...and nothing else.
