Without the satire notice, is there anyone here who would have questioned the veracity of this story?

I was ready to jump in and give the NYT a hard beating, then I noticed the source. This isn’t really satire. It’s just something that hasn’t happened yet. Kind of like John Semmens’ work.

I read about half way thru before I caught on it was satire. It’s totally believable, which is what makes it good satire.

It was written by Sidd Finch of Sports Illustrated fame. I believed that one too.
