Frisco Pigeon Mambo is a 2000 absurdist fiction novel by author C.D. Payne.
Plot Summary
The plot revolves around a group of pigeons who were raised in a scientific lab and forced to smoke cigarettes and drink sherry.[1] Because they have only interacted with humans, they assume they are human.[1] They are extremely happy living in captivity, and their lives are upturned when a clueless animal rights group frees them from the lab.[2] In revenge, the birds wreak havoc on San Francisco in order to maintain their smoking and drinking habits.[1][2]
Film Adaptation
In 1999, the book entered pre-production to be made into an animated film called Frisco Pigeon Mambo by the Farrelly Brothers for 20th Century Fox Animation.[3] In 2000, the project was moved to Blue Sky Studios due to layoffs at 20th Century Fox Animation and the then-closure of their original studio.[4][5] By 2003, Seth MacFarlane had been added on as a writer, and the project was renamed as Party Animals.[6][7] The film was never released for unknown reasons.
