A prank gone wrong

[Hottentot]

Prankster dressed as Bigfoot killed trying to provoke sightings

"He was trying to make people think he was Sasquatch so people would call in a Sasquatch sighting," Schneider told the Daily Inter Lake newspaper on Monday. "You can't make it up. I haven't seen or heard of anything like this before. Obviously, his suit made it difficult for people to see him."

OK, I'm not usually one to speak bad things about the dead, especially being fond of practical jokes myself but...just how clueless can you get? "Wooo, I'm bigfoot, I'm going to parade around in a highway like bigfoot always does! Wooo woo!! Ooo, I died! Now how did that happen?"

Then again, to quote the article again:

alcohol may have been a factor

If it turns out to be, then it's even more sad. I feel bad for those girls who hit him. Have fun living with the fact that you killed a man, no matter how much it may have been his own fault (if these initial reports are accurate, that is.)
