On This Day in Weird, October 18...
1968: Seven teenage boys riding in two cars claim a dramatic
encounter with Bigfoot, somewhere in Fulton County, Illinois. The reporting
witness says they saw a bipedal creature about 5 feet 6 inches tall, covered in
"brown hair with gray or silver ends," initially lying beside the
road, then rising when their cars stopped. One of the youths tries to tackle
it, believing it to be a prankster in a costume, but the creature knocks him
down, hurls gravel at the other boys, then flees "as fast as a deer,"
leaping over a fence and vanishing into the woods.
