As of now, 46,188 people have voted and 57% say yes :eek:
I’d like to believe that if they’d included a “not sure” option, most people would have gone that way. But when faced with a yes/no option, the majority apparently choose to believe there is, in fact a bigfoot.
I can’t believe I share a planet with these people.
The article the poll is associated with is interesting, apparently some folks saw a bison, and thought it was Bigfoot. This is another great example of how shitty eye-witnesses accounts are, and why people believe in stuff like sasquatches, Loch Ness monsters, angels, etc.
My uncle actually went to Arizona for a couple of weeks this past spring to search for Bigfoot. I’m not kidding. He lived with Mescalero Apache on a reservation and would go out at night with others to watch/listen.
The funny part is that other Apache find out what they’re doing and have gotten drunk, they go out and hide and make noises and stuff. It used to confuse the hell out of people.
Sasquatch is something that people need to believe in. Whether his existence is real or mythological matters not. It is our genetic intelligence, an ancient recognition…evolutionary. Remembering shadows from a shared past.
Sasquatch is still a mystery to me and I like it that way. No mystery… sad certainty.
