A Sazerac the way Bigfoot prefers it

The legend of Bigfoot began in the Redwood Forests of Northern California... Back in 1958, local loggers discovered “mysteriously large” footprints and penciled a letter to the editor of the Humboldt times suggesting that they might belong to a giant humanoid creature, “Maybe we have a relative of the Abominable Snowman of the Himalayas?”

The story was printed, the legend continues, and reportedly, Sasquatch appreciates his Sazerac with a splash of Grand Marnier.
