Thank you for your report, Dr. Reece. It’s good to know there were some sensible people out there on that excursion. Too bad you had such rotten weather.

It’s easy for an armchair “explorer” like myself to think every minute of every event involving Biscardi is like some low-rent version of Geraldo. I still wouldn’t trust either of them with my lunch money.

Even the sincere can be self-deluded…or should that read “especially the sincere”?

I think Mr. Reece gave a very honest account of events without embellishing or giving into any temptation to exagerrate what happened. He makes a point of saying that he cannot vouch for certain things that happened and does not even try to insist that the tracks were real. I found his account quite refreshing and free of bias. It is too bad he didn’t make a sighting himself. I enjoyed reading his account, and I do not doubt what he says at all, but what I do wonder about is the authenticity of reports from Biscardi’s group. So many sightings in one expedition without any confirmation through photos even though they seemed to be well prepared is odd to me. This is one of the problems with Biscardi now. He has become so known as a huckster that it is the “cry wolf” thing, even if he comes up with genuine stuff, people are going to view it with a good deal of skepticism. I know I will. In a way it is a shame.

I think his whole thing with reported sightings and tracks smacks of a show put on for the “tourists”. It’s an old trick. Sounds like people paid good money to hunt bigfoot. A few footprints were provided and then a few “sightings”, probably a Biscardi confederate in a monkey suit. Biscardi should run one of those roadside tourist traps. He could call it “Biscardi’s Bigfoot World” I can see the handpainted sign now: “‘Come hunt Bigfoot with the world renowned expert. Enjoy the thrill of discovering REAL footprints of this unknown creature! Experience the excitement of searching for bigfoot! Who knows maybe YOU will see the the mysterious beast!”
Maybe Biscardi could wear khaki and sport a pith helmet for the full effect.

Thanks to Craig and Dr. Reece…

I’m curious what prompted you to join the Biscardi folks in pursuit of these critters.

There are many independent researchers who share their research areas.

TBRC offers excellent outings free of charge. Several NABF members are scientist/visitor friendly.

Live and let live…

Bob Michaels: I felt the exact same way you did. Oh sure. Lookee that; tracks! Hey, boys and girls, sightings! Of course the groups are separated! Why do you think that is…?

Then I thought: wait a minute here.

Haven’t we heard this sort of thing before? Of course Patterson saw a Bigfoot; he was out there to get film and make money. Of course all the photos are blurry. Unless they’re clear; then they’re too good. Of course you see one when you’re going out there specifically to see one. And of course you don’t get a photo when you’re unprepared to get one because you didn’t think you’d see one and just weren’t ready. Uh huh. Suuuuuuuuuure.

Right? It’s ALWAYS too good to be true.

We shouldn’t presume that nothing real happened because Biscardi happened to be there. After all, as the Chinese say, even a blind pig finds an acorn now and then.

And if we don’t hear anything else from this…[sigh] par for the course. For bigfoot in general, right?

It would been more believable if their were no sightings or for that matter no tracks. Bigfoot turns up when no one is out there looking specifically for the sasquatch.

The expedition led by Biscardi in which Mr. Reece was a participant sounds for the most part pretty sincere. Whether the sightings were actual or not, the rest seems like it was pretty much true to form. They did have some pretty wicked weather in Texas a few days ago, in which what we got here in Arkansas the other night. It is a shame the weather was so bad that a full excursion was almost impossible. Thanks Mr. Reece for the report and thanks Craig for posting it.
