Mysterious figure walking across a golf course perplexes the internet

Definitely maybe a giraffe.

There's no doubt about it -- people love a good internet mystery.

A seemingly innocent gender reveal video has started an entertaining conversation after someone noticed a mysterious figure in the background.

Check out the course in the background of this clip after this father-to-be hits the ball and reveals that his future child will be a son.

Some people suggested the figure moving across the course was possibly a giraffe.

Or maybe an alpaca.

Maybe a man in a T-Rex costume.

Bigfoot anyone?

A couple of party poopers jumped in to say this was probably a person carrying a golf bag.

But that didn't go over so well.

We may never know what creature walked across that course. While the most believable answer is that this figure is a person carrying a golf bag, we personally like to believe it was indeed a giraffe.
