| The Lizard Man Returns! 20 years later ... the Lizard Man returns to Bishopville, SC. The crew that has been following Big Foot for the past 30 plus years stopped by to see what kind of creature we had hiding out in our swamps in Lee County. Tom Biscardi (producer and editor of "Big Foot Lives" www.searchingforbigfoot.com) believes we do NOT have a Lizard Man, but a Swamp Ape migrating from north to south through Lee County. Believe what you want to believe, we at the Chamber are embracing the Lizard Man or Swamp Ape creature and are willing to hear all sides of every story. T-shirts are available at the Chamber office - NOW! (See below) The Blossom Shop on Main has t-shirts (803-484-6268) or the South Carolina Cotton Museum has all sorts of Lizard Man memorabilia and t-shirts available (803-484-4497). |
