    I Met BigFoot

    After a year of adding other people's encounters with Spider-Man and Darth Vader, it never dawned upon me that I had anything to add until I found this. This is probably around 1980 and at the Metro Zoo, who used to use 70s super celebrity Bigfoot quite extensively in their marketing (you can still see the painted footprints there) I have no idea who the picture wrecking kid in front is but I do remember wanting to leave the zoo early because it was "Planet of the Apes Week" on City TV. Yes, I was always this way.....

    Was it actually Bigfoot, though ?

    I thought 'Foot's brother Sasquatch reigned supreme up in Canada

    GREAT PHOTO...
    The costume looks like the spitting image of the Rakshasa from Kolchack.

    You so did not. That is clearly a still from the Star Wars Holiday Special.

    It can't be. These creatures are actually non-repulsive!
