A solar eclipse has a way of bringing out some fun conspiracy theories. It also inspires some absolutely crazy ideas, like the existence of lizard men and Bigfoot, but that doesn’t mean state agencies are taking any chances with the upcoming solar eclipse on August 21.
In North Carolina and South Carolina, residents are being told to be mindful of the appearance of the supposed Lizard Man. Seriously. The South Carolina Emergency Management Division went so far as to release a map showing the path of the upcoming solar eclipse and recent sightings of the famed Lizard Man.

Lizard Man is one thing, but what you should be really aware of is the increased likelihood of spotting the one and only Bigfoot. A solar eclipse may not necessarily mean you are more likely to spot Bigfoot, but if you want to increase your chances of seeing him or her while observing the solar eclipse, then a cartographer from NASA has you covered with this handy map…

Not to be outdone, there is a similar map to show where you are most likely to see a UFO while wearing your solar eclipse sunglasses…

But maybe you just want to enjoy a good brew during the eclipse. Don’t worry. There’s a map for that too, of course,
Here it is with incomplete point data – it's hard to find a point file with all the US Breweries on it. #beerclipse2017 pic.twitter.com/F8BiRoBHct

Of course, you may want to stop by a Waffle House when you are done.

Enjoy watching the eclipse while also doing whatever the hell else you want. You’ve got options.
