Miss AmeriCow


It used to be that ranchers liked their women to look like Dale Evans - curvaceous, petite and just darn perty. But it's 1997 and that has all changed. A shapely 1,250-pound Floridian beauty was recently crowned Miss AmeriCow. Yes, she's a cow, but she's a cow with a special birthmark - an outline of the United States on her right side. This 7-year-old beauty is currently roaming the United States on a multi-city tour leaving slobbering cowboy-types in her wake. Though Miss AmeriCow has been on Good Morning America, Dateline NBC and National Geographic, you can see her up close when she makes an appearance at the Philadelphia County Fair's petting zoo.

Philadelphia County Fair, May 29-June 8, Fairmount Park's Memorial Hall. Info: 878-0110.
