It was a busy week in Southeast Ohio. Burr Oak held a Bigfoot Conference, more protests where held on Ohio University’s main campus, and the Albany Independent Fair continued the age old tradition of smashing cars into each other for our enjoyment. Here is the photo breakdown, brought to you by the visuals staff at WOUB.

Mr. Jackson, displays his evidence of a relative of Bookfoot.  He stated "This particular impression has been made by a juvenile relative of Bigfoot".  During years of research Dennis Jackson has been able to differentiate between young and old Bigfoot.  His explanation is simple, "Based on size, and just the idea that I found them.  I always tell everyone, when their parents find out that they've been here, I found the tracks". When I asked Mr. Jackson if he has found Bigfoot, he replied, "I found one seventeen years ago. But I did'nt take a photograph of it. I did'nt caste it. But it was a big one". So far no enoucnters with a live Bigfoot or their relatives.
