Big Foot A Fake….Well Duh

So how many people fell for the latest Bigfoot fraud? Show of hands…..seriously are we that gullible? Is our need to believe in some creature of folk lore that strong? I’m sorry, maybe it’s just me I am a pessimist by nature, I don’t believe in Sasquatch, I also don’t believe in Mermaids, Fairy Godmothers or Keebler Elves, so I am not singling him out. I am just floored that I spent ten minutes of my time today reading about how some guy called a press conference and convinced grown adults that he was in possession of a mythical creature.

Excerpt from story:

ATLANTA — A Web site that claimed two Georgia men had found Bigfoot says the men’s claim is a fraud.
SearchingForBigfoot.com has confirmed that the two Georgia men who claimed they found Bigfoot were lying.
The Web site said that Matthew Whitton and Ricky Dyer delivered the freezer containing the reported remains of the Bigfoot the day after the press conference that they called for. It also said that Whitton and Dyer were given an undisclosed amount of money from Searching For Bigfoot before they went public with their find.

Here’s the really humorous part, Whitton is a police officer, or was he’s been canned now.

Excerpt:

A police officer of seven years, on medical leave, labeled as a hero for being wounded in the line of duty, got up in front of the world and told the world of how he and Ricky Dyer uncovered this creature.
After the Searching For Bigfoot team and “The Real Bigfoot Hunter” Tom Biscardi began to thaw out the creature in a 1,500 lb. cooler of ice, they discovered it was a rubber suit.

All I can do is laugh, I mean really next we will be paying someone for the real head of a Jackalope. (don’t know, look it up.)
