The pigs came from a meat/BBQ place just south of Kansas City called Kerzwells (sp?). The article I saw quoted them as sending around 150 cleaned and frozen pigs! I'll see if I can find a link to the story.

HA! Found it: Here's the quote:

On Aug. 1, the Kingdom of Tonga, an island nation in the South Pacific Ocean, coronates King George Tupou V, who ascended to the throne following his father’s death. At a coronation feast, 135 whole hogs that Jim Kurzweil procured and prepared, will be roasted in traditional luau fashion to celebrate the new king’s reign.

And here's the link to the whole story:
