You’d think Sasquatch investigator Tom Biscardi would’ve seen this one coming. Certainly the warning signs were all there.
First, the two men who claimed to have discovered the over-seven-foot carcass in northern Georgia this past July couldn’t stick to a coherent story as to how they bagged it in the wilds, dragged it out, and iced it down in an undisclosed freezer somewhere.
Next there was Jerry Parrino, owner of a large Halloween store in Port Washington, NY, who warned that the beast in the photos closely resembled a costume his company sells (pictured left).
Finally there was that matter of the “finders fee” (rumored to be in the neighborhood of $50,000), which the pair negotiated for turning their frozen friend over for examination.
But noooo… Biscardi went ahead, paid the gents, and scheduled a Palo Alto press conference last week to announce to the world that the creature’s unveiling was imminent.
Of course, with the money in their hot little hands, the guys who “found” the corpse beat tracks faster than the elusive beast ever could, leaving behind a slowly thawing hoax that left Biscardi and an associate good and frosted.
