Today in Plaquemines Parish, WVUE correspondent John Snell and Parish Coastal Zone Director, PJ Hahn accidentally struck it rich.

Additionally, Hahn told the station that he found thick, heavy crude underground after digging a few feet with a shovel. “I would have never thought that this oil would be this deep underground,” Hahn said.

Bob Dudley has apparently canceled his trip to Russia with Tony Hayward and will soon be arriving to claim the oil for British Petroleum.
