LOUTH, England, June 29 (UPI) -- A British mayor showed up to greet the Olympic torch while dressed as a sausage to support a campaign to get protected status for Lincolnshire sausages.

Louth welcomes the Olympic Torch and is proud to announce that the day will also be a celebration of sausages. There are free samples and sausage deals from all of the Louth butchers. I'm here support the Lincolnshire sausage and be part of this amazing day. So far the response has been very welcoming."
