DeWITT COUNTY, Texas -- The legend of the chupacabra gained new life over the weekend as two DeWitt County sheriff's deputies spotted what they said they believe is the mythical creature.

Friday, Cpl. Brandon Riedel was training a new deputy when he said they saw the animal running down a dirt path along fence lines.

"You need to record something like this because it's not everyday you find something that looks like this running around out in the middle of the county," he said.

"You know, it's just kind of one of those things to hear about and talk about, but to actually see something on video that may actually be a live one, that's pretty amazing.”

Well first of all how is this not breaking news on MSNBC?  We just caught a fucking mythological figure on tape!   I mean if it was Zeus or the Lochness Monster, I guarantee you it would be front page news.  Regardless, back in 1999 on a pre-Barstool business trip I spent 2 weeks in the mountains of Puerto Rico, home of the Chupacabra, and never saw a damn thing.  So I just assumed there was no such thing as a blood-sucking half-dog, half-beast that roamed the mountains and preyed on unsuspecting goats.  Well, score another one for the believers.  I wasn't aware the Chupacabra could fly to Texas, but look at that picture (see above).  That’s as real as your grandmother’s tits.  See, it just goes to show you, if you believe in something long enough, it’s eventually bound to come true.
