NICK EICHER, HOST: Calling all hunters seeking novelty! You may want to head to Oklahoma if a bill filed last week passes.
Representative Justin “J.J.” Humphrey wants to open up a new hunting season for large, furry, ape-like bipeds taller than the average man.
Yes, an official Sasquatch hunting season. You know, Bigfoot.
Humphrey’s district includes heavily forested mountains near the Arkansas border, where a Bigfoot festival happens each year.
So the bottom line is this: Humphrey says selling state hunting licenses and tags could help boost tourism and that in turn boost state coffers.
Always an angle.
It’s The World and Everything in It.
