Yeah, so what if it was a guy in suit? It still scared the shit out of me when I was nine.

I read the book about the “guy who wore suit,” and, well, it just sorta deflated all the wonder I associated with the whole Bigfoot thing.

The filmmaker who shot the footage, Roger Patterson, was a simple con man and huckster. I guess they had those in Tacoma in the ’60s too. Damn.

He sure did pull a lot of wool(fur) over the eyes of the world.

I remember being blown away by the footage. Scared shitless, actually. I mean, just to think that this was out there in the woods, was enough to make me shutter. Still does.
