The Big fella in Oklahoma (Ada, Choctaw: hoa, travel, work)

[redbird4848]

Forgive me for playing "john1960" here, but this is about the time of year when one starts hearing about the Bigfoot creature in Oklahoma.

I am sure this was discussed some time ago here on the CD forum, but not sure if it was ever discussed here on the OK forum. I realize a lot of people think the bigfoot is a hoax, but I have to bring up the point that many tribes speak of this bigfoot long before the european came to this land. Even my tribe has a legend on it.

I worked in the Hinton area and a friend from the Caddo tribe tells me they have a smaller version of bigfoot thereabouts. Their bigfoot is not 9 ft tall, but closer to 7 ft tall. Any way, just for sh*ts and grins, here is link to the story of an indian casino which caught a bigfoot on tape. Tell me what you'ns think.

Have you seen the travel channel's program called "Bigfootville" redbird? I've got it Tivo'd and watch it now and then. It's all about bigfoot in and around Southeastern Oklahoma. It even starts out in Ada, of all places. It has a lot of Indian folks in it that talk about Bigfoot. Interesting. I saw something when I was young that definitely wasn't a person in a suit. It was crossing the South Canadian River outside of Calvin right before dusk. Call me a freak! Below is the travel channel show "Bigfootville" in its entirety. I think it was shot in 2003.

To bad that it was a "reconstructed" video. I'd have loved to see the real thing! I'm open minded about such stuff and find it interesting.

I have heard stories about bigfoot for many years. In Love County in southern OK people told tales of a monster in the woods. There is so much empty land in far southeast Oklahoma that just about anything could be out there!

It's a HOAX!!!

Sorry, I just had to say it before anyone else does.

Actually, I believe in it, kinda sorta. I think my tribe which originated in the far north had stories of it. But the Choctaws also have stories on bigfoot.

Does SE Oklahoma get snow? I have never had any close encounters, but I have to agree there is a lot of open space in SE Oklahoma. Heck, there's a lot of animals like mountain lions here in OK that people just don't see.

I have dialup at home, so YOUTUBE is a big waste of time for me.

Do you mean the casino video or bigfoot in general?

I am more afraid of meeting a lion in the woods than bigfoot. I have heard a lot of claims of mountain lion sightings in the wilder areas to the east of us.

The hotbed about bigfoot is around Honobia in SE OK. I am a little suspicious because it is kind of a tourist thing, but some people are very sincere in their stories. It does seem like at least a skeleton would have been found by now, but who knows, they may bury their dead.

Bigfoot has no use for random photographers

I'd believe "Harry and The Hendersons" first.

I just like to think that the "legend" of bigfoot has a little more credence to me because of its prehistoric origin, meaning long before europeans came to this country. Maybe its a human cultural trait because I believe they have similar legends in Asia.

We, meaning native Peoples, also have stories of the Little People, shape shifters, etc. which is a whole different thread.

What?! No drive by shooting? aww.

That show "Bigfootville" is on the Travel Channel right now. It's pretty funny. And pretty interesting. I dare mkfarnam to spend the night alone in pittsburgh county or down around SE Oklahoma.

go ahead... I double dare you.~ And you can take Synopse's camera with you.
