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.”
