The Carolina Classic Fair in Winston-Salem, N.C., is pulling in large crowds with a talented headlining performer: Twiggy the water-skiing squirrel.
Twiggy proved to be a big draw during the fair’s opening day on Friday, and is scheduled to perform multiple times a day until the fair closes on Sunday.
The talented squirrel is not the first to bear the name and skill-set — the first Twiggy was adopted by Lou Ann Best and her husband, Chuck, when Hurricane David knocked the baby squirrel out of its nest in Central Florida in 1979.
Best trained a total eight water-skiing squirrels before retiring. The latest squirrel to carry the Twiggy torch tours the country with her son, Chuck Best Jr.
