Sighting Text:
TX COUNTY 1998 TR#74 Bobby Hamilton of the Gulf Coast BigFoot Research Organization (bobby@iamerica.net). says Bigfoot is active in SE Texas. Five weeks ago he was in a very secluded area when he found a two week old footprint (based on rain damage). It was 18” X 8 1/4”, 4 1/2” across the heel, five toes showing. Also in the same area on a Farm to Market road, Feb 19th, at 1:30 AM witness was following an 18 wheeler when a large two legged dark colored creature crossed the road between him and the truck. It was huge and fast, and perhaps 8-9 feet tall. It had crossed the road very fast. While in the area, Bobby interviewed a local, and was told that three months ago about 11:30 PM his dogs started acting up and when he went outside, they just about knocked him over running into the house. On the edge of his property, he saw a large hunkered over shadow turn and enter the woods. Later he heard something make deep moaning sounds and heard a scream like nothing he had ever heard, causing the hair to stand up on the back of his neck. Bobby is still investigating these reports, and is keeping the location quiet.

A black figure on the side of the road was rolling on the ground like it was trying to scratch. Witness was driving truck and trailer with a lot of lights, and with high beam on, at 60 mph. The 6 1/2- 7 foot very broad creature stood on hind legs and started walking east to west towards him on the left side of the road Eyes reflected light. The creature was covered with black looking hair with a reddish cast, flat nose and forehead, and arms long, almost to the knees. As witness passed, it jumped up and down on side of road, hitting its chest like an ape. It did not run off into the woods like one would expect. If not so wide, witness would have thought it was a man in a suit.
