East Coast Bigfoot Conference
Posted by: Loren Coleman on September 27th, 2008
Eric Altman’s Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society will hold its conference today, on Saturday, September 27, 2008 from noon to 8:00 pm, in the banquet hall located above Pitzers’ Townhouse Restaurant, Jeannette, Pennsylvania. Speakers scheduled are Diane Stocking, Bob Chance, Billy Willard, Tom L, Joe Biello, and Eric Altman.
The conference for Bigfoot enthusiasts in Pennsylvania includes a tour of at least four spots in the area where the man-like beast has supposedly been sighted.
While Bigfoot, or Sasquatch, is commonly associated with the Pacific Northwest, about 250 reports have come in from Pennsylvania in the past 10 years.
Eric Altman of the Pennsylvania Bigfoot Society has organized this weekend’s gathering in Jeannette, a town about 20 miles east of Pittsburgh. He expects between 300 and 500 people, the Pittsburgh Tribune Review reported.

I attended this conference. It was the first ‘event’ of this type I’ve ever been to.
The whole thing was FANTASTIC. All the speakers were interesting. The only - and I mean ONLY - negative to the whole thing was that there were so many people there, it was often difficult walking around the conference room to see the various exhibits and such. Otherwise, it was just a great experience.
Eric Altman and company deserve MANY pats on the back {and probably a week of catching-up on lost sleep} for all the hard work in setting-up this event.
