Sass-Squashed…
Word that a Bigfoot body had been found created tremendous buzz across the ‘net last week.
An indication of the huge interest was the way readership of this little blog exploded with-in hours of our post last Tuesday..
We charted thousand and thousands of extra readers.
Other websites that specialize in Bigfoot and Cryptozoology were so overwhelmed, they crashed..
Everyone wanted to know about the body—and evidence that were promised to be revealed at a big, California-based press briefing..
But alas—when Friday’s news conference rolled around—all we got was a lot of talk like this:
Yeah, Matthew Whitton sounds like a nice guy— But, Matt buddy— if you’ve got one of the greatest scientific discoveries of the age—you’d best show me the evidence.
I’m sure Matt knows all about evidence—because in real life—he’s a full-time cop.
Cops know that you’ve gotta prove your case..
And, Officer Matt, in the court of public opinion—we have thrown your case out.
When Matt and company announced their find, they issued a press release that talked of a 7 foot tall, 500 pound body.
The DNA results they presented showed their samples contained both human and possum DNA, as well as one result that was inconclusive.
Hardly convincing.
BUT, if they’d had the purported creature’s corpse there on display—well, it would go a long way towards discounting the DNA..
With an unknown species there for all to see, we might have bought the conclusion the DNA samples were contaminated.
All we got were a few ambiguous photographs…
And with a 7-foot body, they certainly could have spared a few dozen swatches of skin, as well as hair, or fur to hand out to reporters who could have had that stuff tested independently IF the Bigfoot hunters REALLY had the goods..
But I’m afraid they only “goods” they have was a good laugh on the rest of the world.
As for me— I’m not gonna believe they’ve got Bigfoot unless he shows up at the Democratic Convention in Denver.
I hear tell—-that’s a REAL possibility.
