The alleged petrified giant up in Kansas arouses curiosity because no one has discovered what brand was blown in the bottle.
I am not sure which petrified giant this is referring to or if it was an altogether separate one. The reference to what brand and bottle refers to a skeptic imagining the person seeing it must have been drunk. Its just a mocking way people deal with opposition to the narratives they have already decided on. 
I think this one deserves some investigation. I would like to know if there are any more articles or new clues to this giant reference.
