Bigfoot, we hardly knew ye!

Bigfoot in Black and White

I realize that the truth hurts sometimes, and believe me, I’m feeling the pain terribly at the moment.

It’s my solemn duty to our readers to announce that last week’s announcement of scientific proof of the existence of “Bigfoot” was all a carefully planned hoax. The hoaxters even purchased a cheap, full-body gorilla/Bigfoot costume, placed it in a freezer and photographed it as “proof” of Bigfoot’s existence.

A nation weeps.

    So, can they be prosecuted for fraud? Did they profit from this?

    What a bunch of assholes.

    I'd been wondering how a photo of the thing stuffed in a cooler proved anything. At least P.T. Barnum had the decency to put his fakes on display.

    Should've RTFA. They did profit from it, and it was certainly fraud.

    I bet those guys are going to feel like they've been buggered by a whole pack of rabid sasquatch before it's all over.

    Humiliation? Nah. I think a tad bit of dignity is a prerequisite for that, and these bozos sure didn't start with any dignity.

    OMG liek SRSLY?! Did they follow up on the Japanese Loch ness Monster? Uy... I'm amazed the nation believed it for a whole week.

    Well, Bigfoot could easily exist, just like the "mythical" lowland gorilla turned out to be fact a hundred years ago.

    The fact that they found it in a heavily developed Georgia forest probably should have set off some alarms, and they certainly should have examined the "corpse" before shelling out the money.

    I just LOVE how this has been headline news on cnn.com for over a week, while John Edwards cheating on his sick wife and fathering a child out of wedlock while running a presidential campaign is 'not news'.

    I used to work with a person who we used to compare to bigfoot. I'd always come out of their office and say, "Don't gimme no sass, squatch." to the delight of my co-worker.

    As for this so-called debunking. Why won't they release the surveillance videos? HMMM?

    Carefully planned? Yeah, right, for values of "carefully planned" that involve drinking beer and shooting at mice inside your trailer with a .22.

    If it had been even slightly planned, they could have drawn it out for several more weeks. Like the last time.

    But the Bigfoot guys are such trustworthy fellows! I’m sure they just put a rubber suit out by mistake. Will the real Bigfoot be revealed?

    I really think that the so called ''bugfoot'' is kinda real but at the same time you still keep wondering.
