Upcoming Guest: It looked like Chewbacca. A listener writes “I wanted to talk to you about an encounter I had in 2007. I was with a few of my cousins and their grandfather and we were doing an excursion with the BFRO.
It was before Finding Bigfoot came out but we were with Matt Moneymaker and Bobo. (Didn’t know who they were at the time) We were walking down a path with reeds on both sides of us and they were about 7 feet high. (I’m 5 11).
It was at night but it was either a full moon or nearly a full moon so it wasn’t that dark. While we were walking I heard heavy footsteps to my right as if something was sprinting at me. I jumped as a natural reaction and I jumped higher than the reeds. I saw a brown head (looked almost like Chewbacca does in the Star Wars films). I landed on the ground facing the reeds and braced myself. After I landed I heard a huge thud on the other side of the reeds. Well I started yelling that something is right there.
There was probably about 25 of us or so spread out over the course of a few hundred yards and we were in groups of 3. My cousins grandfather went through the reeds and he saw that there was a huge impression in the grass. Another group about 100 yards from us told me to quiet down. After this we had rocks thrown at us and my youngest cousin said he saw red glowing eyes. There’s more to the story and it’s quite long. I got a little annoyed at the BFRO because they never documented our experiences on their website and it seemed like they didn’t believe us.
Bobo brought his truck near us and said he saw one of them that night too.”

Wow. Perhaps Bobo has documented this case somewhere, maybe on his and Cliffs Bigfoot and Beyond. If Im allowed to guess about the BFRO not documenting this at the time, it would be because they did not want other people to go to this place and screw up their research area. By the way, where was this general location? Your cousin seeing red glowing eyes, could mean this was one pissed off Bigfoot, and with 25 folks in his area, who could blame him. A few weeks back on Bigfoot and Beyoond podcast, both Cliff and Bobo were stating that Matt Moneymaker was always better than anyone else they knew about finding great areas of activity.

On a further note, would love to hear your entire event.
