I noticed it went full bore mainstream in summer of 2023 in several states, especially Pennsylvania. Lots of conferences & festivals, big campaign promotions. I wrap it into the same grifter group as the UFO flap. It's a big money market industry with absolute zero truth in it as far as I'm concerned. All just entertainment nowadays. There is of course a few that are more scientific oriented in searching for & presenting very interesting data, but they now get drowned out by the entertainment CULTure. Bigfoot, UFOs, & BBQs.

To me it's just a myth, but that don't mean there isn't something strange & elusive among us. I also do not belittle anyone who does believe in Bigfoot. I never really got into Bigfoot research despite living in Oregon. What I find more interesting than the beast itself is the host of characters that speak & publish on Bigfoot. Many to me are way out on cloud 9, but seemingly harmless. The same with the loud voices in the UFO cult groups, but with a big exception - many of them I find to be dangerous akin to religious cult leaders.
