Local Dallas Reporter Attends Biscardi Expedition

Posted by: Craig Woolheater on April 9th, 2007

In my post here on Cryptomundo Update: Biscardi Bigfoot Reality TV Show, the newspaper article mentions that ABC and FOX news crews filmed at Biscardi’s Paris Texas Bigfoot Expedition.

Last night on the local ABC affiliate, WFAA 8, the report aired.

The only text on the station’s website was the following:

Why Guy tracks Bigfoot in Paris, Texas

April 9th, 2007

No one ever thought it would come to Texas, but it has. We’re talking about an unsolved mystery that’s baffled top investigators for the past 35 years and we’ve all heard about it - Bigfoot. WFAA 8

However, the video clip of the news segment is available on their website.

See Why Guy tracks Bigfoot in Paris, Texas.

I think it’s more like twenty four hours a day, he figures out ways to sucker people out of their money under the guise of solving a mystery. Groan.

Okay, Mr. Milione is showing off all kinds of stuff he invented for this hunt, but all of it comes as kits from amazing1.com and you can even get it delivered put together if you want to pay a few extra bucks. I thought he would be more honorable than that since he is associated with TAPS, to at least tell the truth on that.

Hmmm, everytime I try to play the video, it shoots me to an old man who saved his neighbor from the fire.
I don’t know what I’m going to do without my daily dose of Biscardi!

Does anyone out there LIKE Tom Biscardi? I will probably get a lot of negative feedback from that comment alone, but…
Would anyone comment on their feelings about the BFRO and what they’re doing? I am happy and excited about them finally coming to Arkansas in October. Their trip is LONG overdue I feel. In my opinion, the Pacific Northwest is not the only HOT SPOT for sasquatch. I feel eastern Texas, Arkansas and Oklahoma are home to mamy of these animals. The Ouachita National Forest is a vast, vast forested area that could be home to numerous animals.
Just my opinion.

Whether we “like” Biscardi and/or the BFRO is totally immaterial to the Quest - at least they are out there, beating the bushes, where the Creatures are, while most of us are not.

Tom and Matt are astute businessmen who have each found a niche market that deserves attention, and they are addressing those specific markets in their own unique and financially stable ways.

BFRO has twelve - TWELVE! - Expeditions scheduled, from one end of the country to the other and back again, in 2007 alone! If anything can produce evidence of Sasquatch’es presence - anecdotal reports, lairs & hairs, footprint casts, recordings, photos, videos etc, it is that kind of saturation investigation, regardless of the techniques involved.

And Biscardi’s Group goes where nobody else wants to go; regardless of and seemingly impervious to all the criticism and ridicule, they’re out there, snooping around with sophisticated gear.

There are other Organizations mounting forays into what remains of the American wilderness, too, conducting difficult and professional research campaigns in the most likely areas, out there, working at it.

Who cares what anybody thinks about this Organization or that Group? Let’s look at RESULTS!

-arbigfoothunter and Fuzzy. You are absolutely right. If I could I would but I will not travel from Sweden to the States just to have a walk in the woods that most likely ends up as fruitless as a pinetree. It is a bit interesting though that we don’t have any creatures roaming the woods up here in Scandinavia. It would be fairly possible since Sweden is twice as large as California but just about nine million people (living mainly in the south).

Anyway, I think that the main problem about these expeditions is that people have to pay a lot of money to participate. Obviously any organiser will have expenses that must be covered some how. But I can smell a rather lucrative business in this and it doesn’t attract me as a pro-bono lover.

Though, if people are willing to pay for it I’m O.K with that and it might be a good chance for the cryptid community to get public acceptance. In the end of the day, what is the difference between collecting stamps and searching for an unknown animal?

Ps. Germans pay app. 5 US $ for a jar of moose dung here in Sweden so I have to say that paying top dollars for a few nights in the forest is not too bad.

I think that most of the ink in squatchery tends to go to the people involved in the search, when actually the animal itself gives us all plenty to talk about.

Wish I knew more about the BFRO. I understand the quality of their expeditions to, well, let’s just say vary greatly. I just hope that when the finding actually happens, it’s done right.

DWA: Best way to check out the quality of BFRO’s Expeditions is to PARTICIPATE in one!

Well, the way I see it is sure, they are “saturation investigation” but what kind of standards are they holding too? How are they going to keep the evidence viable with a bunch of thrill seekers trouncing about with them? It is not just about how often you go out or where one is willing to go. I don’t buy the argument that just because he is going out all the time looking, that he is out doing good research. That is simply not the way it works. What are their methods? What lengths are being gone to to ensure that the expeditions are being carried out in a scientific manner? In order to have a scientific expedition with results that are going to mean anything to science, there are certain standards and protocol to be followed. I have done field work and it is not about going out camping and wandering about looking for stuff. Results? What are the results going to be if what is found does not hold up to scientific scrutiny or if the methods used were unacceptable? Even if something very good is found, it will never be accepted as hard evidence if it is handled like this. It is not just about the results. The evidence found has to be analysed and presented and documented in an acceptable manner. Short of producng a body, that is the way things have to be. Maybe I am wrong, but I don’t see that happening here. What I see here in my opinion is Biscardi going out with a bunch of paying Bigfoot tourists in tow, corrupting potential evidence and even possibly frightening Bigfoot away. This is supposed to be a field research expedition. Would Jane Goodall approve of this approach to studying chimps? I disagree that this is good for the field. In fact, I think it draws needless criticism, skepticism, and scorn from mainstream scientists.

Mystery-man: I never qualified the research being done, but I know that much of it is decidedly scientific, not just a romp in the woods.

Alas, as with most things, it’s all about the money. If you don’t have a benefactor to fund true, long-term scientific data gathering, you MUST resort to other techniques.

Goodall and Fossey (and others) research known primates, a respectable venture, hence funding.

Sasqfoot’s existence is hotly contested, even the subject of ridicule and ostracism, hardly justifying wasting any legitimate Research Funds.

So, we mount data-gathering “Expeditions”. Single hikers and groups of enthusiasts, amateurs and professionals alike, invest in expensive equipment, accessories, supplies, transportation and recovery time, in the hopes of discovering something, anything, that will help the cause, and to experience the thrill of the chase, and even (oh, the shame!) to make a little money in the process.

So, I say again, WHO CARES what their motivations or techniques are, at least they are out there, doin’ it! Science-types can tsk-tsk, grumble and snort all they want, but the real data-gathering work has to be done, and they ain’t doin’ it!
mystery_man responds: April 11th, 2007 at 10:54 pm
Right, fuzzy, I see your point. Funding is the kicker, isn’t it? I am just skeptical of the techniques being used. Some of the stuff put forward by Biscardi so far has really tainted his reputation to provide viable evidence. The hand of Bigfoot, the foot of Bigfoot, desecrating buried remains to claim they are those of a Bigfoot. This is not what I would expect from a group out trying to do legitimate research and provide scientifically acceptable evidence. Are the results of their expeditions fully released for peer review or only to people willing to fork out for the DVD? These are some of the things that bother me about these expeditions of his. I really do hope you are right and that they are using scientific methods. Like I said, maybe I’ve got them all wrong. That is going to be very important if they want anything they find to be taken seriously. Making money is all good and well, but if they want to get that funding and be taken serious, then they have to carry themselves and their research in a way that will facillitate that. No body is going to want to fund them if they are not going through the proper procedures or are making a laughing stock out of this sort of research.

Agreed.
