The Booze Hangs High

This Bosko cartoon is very musical in nature and has one bit centering around three pigs who take turns drinking from a bottle of booze and lurching around. Bosko feeds his pigs by dumping a trash can into their trough. The two baby pigs find a bottle of booze in the trough. They and their father all get drunk on it.

The title comes from a song used in this cartoon, “The Goose Hangs High”, which comes from the Oscar Hammerstein musical The Song of the Flame.
