Crowded beaches in Arizona? Coronavirus spoof fools the unwary
PolitiFact ^ | April 27, 2020 | Jon Greenberg

Some people just don’t get a joke.

An April 22 Facebook post had a mock screenshot of beachgoers crammed cheek by jowl to enjoy the waves at Arizona’s ever popular seaside. The image looked as though it was pulled from television news and under the headline, "Crowded beaches in AZ," was the summary "People defying stay-at-home order fill Arizona beaches."

And it would suck to be on that beach. That looks awful.

Who would want to go to such a place.

Look up Benguela current - it flows north along that cost from the Antarctic. Causes male sterility.

Oceanfront property in Arizona?

50 miles between the Arizona border and the Sea of Cortez. If the Gadsen Purchase had been negotiated differently, there could have been short stretch of ocean-front in Arizona. But in our timeline, Arizona's southern border has a northwest diagonal to avoid having a seaport.

Had to be a CBS production, the same folks who gave us the video of overcrowded hospitals here in the US - twice! Problem was, the videos were of hospitals in Italy.

I guess a lot of people didn’t understand that George Strait’s song was a spoof.

As long as it doesn't cause that other male problem which must not be named.

All they had to do is wait a bit and they could get real pictures of crowded beaches on the Colorado River. It is always amusing to see how many people will bite on a story without even the least checking. Happened early right on this site with a story about how Trump was going to deny Covid aid to sanctuary states.

After the Big One in California, we’ll have beachfront property in Yuma. The Phoenix Seaport will replace the Port of Los Angeles & Long Beach.
