Giant Croc Found In New Oreans!!!!!
LOL....I got an email today with pics and everything about a giant croc found in New Orleans. So I did what I always do and searched the story against the "Urban Legends" and/or "snopes" website.
Of course...it's a hoax but it's out there!!!!

It seemed very obvious from the picture that it was a hoax. Yes, it looked huge but what was a crocodile doing in New Orleans and what is with all the African people in the one pic? It was also unlikely that the military shot it.

Someone sent me this pic after Katrina. I knew before I opened it that it wasn't La. if it was a croc (we have gators, or Louisiana yard dogs). Although some parts of New orleans do resemble a third world country- even before the storm- this is definitely Africa. Some people are willing to believe anything.
