Announcement: Bigfoot Ballyhoo has been under attack, in the past, by a couple of people who wished Ballyhoo and its editors to look as if they were hoaxing information.

One of the biggest examples would be the claim that we made up the ESP Team, Bill Emery, Cole Saxton and the late Hank Parchell. A well-known bigfoot researcher found photos that looked like Emery, Saxton and Parchell. He claimed the three to be the real men and not any part of the ESP Team. (In fact, he claimed there was no ESP Team).

And then while the Emery Team was processing trail cam photos a couple were sent to Ballyhoo. These photos turned out to be well-known bigfoot photos, one from a movie and one of Patty. The technician’s son that was processing the trail cam photos replaced the real photos with fakes. In good faith Emery sent the dallied-with photos to Ballyhoo. When it was found out what happened it was explained.

Another photo of a footprint with a believable history was given Ballyhoo to post. Turned out to be Tim Fasano’s photo from Florida. Again, we’ve given explanations for each occurrence. We were hoaxed.

We in time recognized each hoax and explained what happened

"Stunning" Things I've Seen
     by Dale Saxton

(The article was on the comments of Dale's earlier article. I thought everyone would like to read it.)
A few of the "stunning" things I have seen while looking at reported sightings include these: Once, I found at a track site where something had picked up a plastic outhouse and carried it over 200 feet, and then threw it over a bank, with no skid marks on the ground from dragging it.

Another time, I found where an old rotted tree weighing over 1,000 pounds had been put across an old dirt road to block it. The only mark was 15 inch tracks from whatever put it there.

A lady told me once that she watched a large creature picking apples off a tree on her rural property. After walking over a mile into the woods, I found where something had piled up the apples and covered them with a large branch.

These things cannot be explained by any known animal. Bears don't pick up logs. Elk don't collect apples, pile and cover them. Cougars don't pick up toilets and dump them over banks.

These are a few things that I've seen while looking into sightings.
