Poll question: What's the best punchline?

4. Here's the whole joke:
A traveling salesman is walking a route in a rural area. He comes upon a house and notices a pig with a wooden leg rooting around in the front of one house. This piques his curiosity, so he goes up to the house and finds the owner working outside.

"Excuse me sir... I couldn't help but notice you have a pig with a wooden leg..."

"Oh! THAT pig! Goldarn, we love that pig. Lordy jeezus, just two years ago, mah son was up in the loft in the barn and a fire done broke out. That darn pig climbed up the ladder and DRAGGED my boy outta that barn. Yessiree, we love that pig."

"That's quite a story. But why does he have a wooden..."

"Oh sweet gosh-amighty, we love that pig. Last year, mah wife was was down by the crick gatherin' crawdads and a dang-blasted flash flood came washin' down the crick, grabbed my wife and started draggin' her away. That pig, mind you - he's a PIG!- ran down there and done jumped in the water, grabbed my wife, dragged her back home. Saved her life, he did."

"Wow... but I still don't understand. Why does he have a wooden leg?"

"Golly gee whillikers, that pig. Don't know what we'd do without him. Just last month mah daughter was out in the field when a tornado just blew up. We was all a-rushin' down to the basement and plum forgot all about her. But not that pig, no sir. He went OUT to the field and DRAGGED her back to the house."

"Incredible. But please, why does he have a wooden leg?

The farmer pauses, looking blank-eyed at the salesman. "Are you CRAZY, fellah? A pig like THAT ya don't eat all at ONCE!"
