The Chupacabra Caught?
by Mike Krumboltz
6 hours ago

It really does exist! Maybe! The famed chupacabra has apparently been found, and it's a Texan.

Or at least it was. The beast is now dead, but news of its capture near Blanco, Texas, inspired Bigfoot-sized searches. Lookups on "chupacabra" surged a whopping 571%, and related queries on "what does chupacabra mean" also roared. (For the record, its rough translation is "goat sucker.") The find also inspired renewed interest in the equally notorious Montauk Monster.

Jerry Ayer, owner of Blanco Taxidermy School, has possession of the mythical beast's body. According to CNN, the animal was discovered by one of Ayer's students. The student had "placed poison...to catch an unidentified animal that had gotten into a family member's barn." Little did the student know the animal in question was (maybe) the chupacabra.

In the video from CNN (which is pretty gross, so beware), Ayer shows off some of the unusual features of the animal, including abnormally long legs and teeth. It looks a bit like the world's ugliest (and meanest) dog.

Of course, this is hardly the first time someone has claimed to have captured the chupacabra. In years past, brave souls have spotted it in places ranging from Russia to Maine to the Philippines to the LLoyd Noble Center. :eek: Often the animal is spotted by folks who conveniently forget to snap a photo.

Not so this time. Ayer says he plans to preserve the animal and then donate it to a local museum so it can be enjoyed by others. As the taxidermist puts it, the beast is "a tremendous conversation piece." Sort of like the Mona Lisa or a really stellar collection of garden gnomes.

He's not from this planet! :eek:

So where did Juan P land this year? I'm going to go by a preseason mag today so I can answer this myself.

[Rhino]

He supposedly landed at Western Kentucky, but he isn't on their roster.

BTW, Terrance Boyd (ex-Norman High) signed with Western Kentucky this spring, but was released from the team last month.

He's with Miami Dade Community College now.

[Mjcpr]

He supposedly landed at Western Kentucky, but he isn't on their roster.

Perhaps isn't playing in order to concentrate on his academics.

What happend to Juan for reals? Why is he off the team? I missed the news on that one.

[TopDawg]

Juan is taking a year off from basketball to recover from the surgery he had to undergo to give me a kidney.
