This Guy Looked Like Chewbacca

A listener writes “I’ve been putting this off for some time now. I’d like to tell you about a sighting that I had in 1981 when I was about nine years old.

I was born in a town called Saginaw Michigan. It’s pretty close to the big Saginaw bay which the Saginaw river and the Tittabawassee river run directly into. I lived right at the edge of the city where there was a large golf course large wooded areas which are now part of the Shiawassee wildlife refuge.

The strange thing is what I saw did not make sense to be in that part of the edge of a subdivision. It was approximately 1 o’clock in the morning and I remember not being able to sleep so I was just playing on the back of the couch peering out the window towards my school that was kitty corner from my house. On the corner there was obviously a street light which illuminated the whole intersection between my house and my school. I saw what appeared to be a large hairy man with long hair walk under the street light and stop just at the edge. The first thing I remember is saying that man has really long hair. But But as he proceeded into the light he became apparent to me That this guy looked like Chewbacca. I watched it as it slowly walked away across the intersection into the subdivision and disappeared.

When I woke the next morning I remember telling my mother what I saw and she said you must’ve been dreaming. I told her I swear it looked like Chewbacca and she said that I had a very vivid dream and a wild imagination. When I woke up the next morning I was getting ready to go over to my school where there was an ice rink and play hockey with my friends. As I walked over across the sidewalk in the edge of the snowbank I saw what appeared to be bare footprints very large. There may have been more than one but as I recall when I saw the footprints I remember telling myself it wasn’t a dream it was all real. Sorry for such a long email but it was the only way I could describe it to you and I’ve told nobody about this but my wife. Thank you for your time.”
