Mmm.....Steamed Hoax with Melted Butter

This lobster was caught off Newport recently. It's half brown and half orange and literally a 1 in 50 million catch.

My problem with this is it's too perfect. The frelling thing is divided perfectly down the middle. It looks like someone spray painted the thing. Apparently the fisherman who caught it thought the same thing, but reports seem to be that it's legit.

Of course, the press doesn't tend to do silly little things like verify the facts. If one station put it on, so must every other one.

Personally, I'm sticking with my original thoughts - it's a fake. I just can't believe that it would be divided so cleanly, it looks like a ruler was used to divide the critter's coloring.

You read it here first: FAKE...
