06-15-2024 - On This Day in Insane History

On June 15th, 2024 in the small village of Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch, Wales, an unusual event occurred that locals would speak of for years to come. It was a brisk Saturday morning when townsfolk began gathering reports of a most peculiar sighting at the edge of the town. One by one, people began claiming they had seen an animal with the body of a badger, the tail of a beaver, and wings of a low flying swallow.

Witness accounts varied in their descriptions of the creature's color which seemed to change from one observer to the next. Being a sensible village, the residents decided a group must investigate. When the expedition reached the spotting site, to their utter astonishment, crumbs of all things were discovered. Further inspection revealed the crumbs spelled out a message "Sorry for the confusion, just passing through". While the meaning was unclear, it was agreed by all something or someone out of this world had paid their village a brief but memorable visit. The children played for weeks enacting scenes of the "beavajetallow" as it came to be called in the years following. To this day, the people of Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch keep an eye out for further signs of its existence.
