Nothing brings more tourists running than weird shit–giant balls of string, women with four heads, mermaids. That’s right, a mermaid has been sighted in Kiryat Yam, Israel, and the fannypack crowd is basically freaking the fuck out. Apparently, the mythical creature looks like a cross between a little girl and a dolphin.

The town council has made the prospect of visiting this rather blah town even more attractive by offering a $1 million award to anyone who can catch the female fish on film.

That’s a lot of money for a lousy photo, but, according to the council, "If there really is a mermaid, then so many people and tourists will come to Kiryat Yam, a lot more money will be made than a $1 million."

Yeah, and also, mermaids don’t exist. So…
