She has been an entertainment staple at boat shows for years and apparently she’s had enough.
Twiggy the Skiing Squirrel escaped tragedy Saturday afternoon when a spectator unintentionally knocked a loudspeaker into the act’s makeshift pool during a performance at the Mobile Boat Show in Alabama.
Twiggy’s owner, LouAnn Best said the speaker landed about 2 feet in front of the miniature boat pulling the 7-year-old female squirrel’s plastic skis. The skis are tethered by a cable another couple of feet behind the boat’s stern.
“Twiggy has gotten loose before, but that’s the first time I’ve ever had a speaker fall into the water,” Best said.
