PRODUCER'S "ILLEGAL"

HIJINKS IGNITE

SCANDAL

National Geographic Show is
"Extreme, Spastic, Painful and
Disturbing," Say Creators


Residents of Montana are furious after the stars of Bethesda-based Half Yard Productions' newest show allegedly went hog wild on historic sites in that state.

The Billings Gazette reports that "Diggers," an amateur archaeology adventure show Half Yard is producing for National Geographic, "dug" without permission at historic preservation properties like Old Montana Prison.

Producers deny the claims and say they had full permission to be there. Preservationists are calling on the state to press charges.

"We don't want historic sites, especially battlefields, looking like gophers have been in there," Doug Melton of the Montana Bureau of Land Management told the Gazette.

Half Yard Productions is no stranger to controversy; the company also produced "The Real Housewives of D.C."
