The community gained brief notoriety in 2001 when ''The Daily Show'' aired a piece on the "Choccolocco Monster",〔(Ghosts Near Mississippi | The Daily Show | Comedy Central )〕 a part of local folklore concerning sightings of a mysterious creature in the area in the late 1960s. An October 2001 article in the ''Anniston Star'' newspaper revealed that the creature was, in fact, local resident Neal Williamson dressed in a cow skull and a sheet. As a teenager, Williamson would don his costume and gain the attention of passing cars by jumping out of the woods onto the roadside, often startling motorists.〔(The Anniston Star - The Choccolocco Monster: Jokester reveals 32-year-old prank )〕 == References ==
