The same rumor resurfaces form time to time here in Jacksonville Fl as well.While it's not impossible, I'd consider this unlikely. A few years ago, the rumor had it in or near Brevard County where I live. Since it was my first encounter with the rumor, I got moderately excited (for years after we moved here the wife and I used to miss our times at Six Flags Great Adventure in NJ), before learning that this is evidently a perennial but unfounded rumor that keeps surfacing.
Unless you know more than you've let on...
