Illinois Ranks 5th in Bigfoot Sightings: A&D Show Explores with Expert

Bigfoot sightings are a fascinating topic, and it seems that Illinois is a hotbed for such encounters. According to the Bigfoot Field Research Organization, Illinois ranks 5th in the nation for reported Sasquatch sightings, with an average of over three sightings per year in the past 100 years. Recently, a video posted on YouTube by The A&D Show caught my attention. The hosts, David and Austin, welcomed Corey, a self-proclaimed Squatch expert, to discuss all things Bigfoot. Corey holds a PhD in "squatchy" and an MD in "squatitude," so you know he's serious about his studies. During the episode, Corey shared a story about a Sasquatch sighting in Cass County, Illinois. A motorist reported seeing a Bigfoot running near the road. While the story is intriguing, it's essential to approach such accounts with a critical yet open mind. The A&D Show's video also touched on the topic of AI-generated graphics, which provided a few laughs. However, the real focus was on the discussion of Sasquatch sightings and the credibility of such reports. Bigfoot field research organizations like the BFRO maintain comprehensive databases of credible sightings, which are often categorized into two classes. Class 1 sightings involve seeing a Sasquatch at close range, while Class 2 sightings involve observing evidence of a Sasquatch's presence, such as footprints or tree breaks. Whether you're a seasoned Bigfoot researcher or a curious newcomer, the video from The A&D Show offers an engaging conversation about Sasquatch sightings in Illinois and beyond. So, grab some popcorn, sit back, and enjoy the discussion. And if you're feeling adventurous, why not venture out into the woods and see if you can spot a Sasquatch yourself? Who knows, you might just add to Illinois' impressive tally of sightings.
