Squatchable, Bigfoot enthusiasts, here's a fascinating video we stumbled upon from the YouTube channel Small Town Monsters. The video takes us on a tour of the North American Bigfoot Center, a unique museum dedicated to all things Sasquatch.
The museum is the brainchild of Cliff Bericman, a former host of Animal Planet's Finding Bigfoot. After the show ended, Cliff found himself at a crossroads, unsure of what to do next. But with a deep-rooted passion for Bigfoot and a collection of casts, he decided to open a museum.
His wife, Melissa Bericman, co-owner of the museum, shares the journey of how the idea for the museum came to be. They knew they wanted something different, something that reflected their personalities and the unique location.
The building they found was a former motorcycle garage, perfect for a museum with a large open area in the back and a small office in the front. The front part could be a gift shop, while the back part could be the display halls.
The name of the museum, North American Bigfoot Center, is a nod to Cliff's old blog, North American Bigfoot. The center part signifies that the museum is more than just a museum; it's a hub for research, archival work, and outreach.
The video also features Scott Minton, a creative who helped design the museum. Scott and Cliff met during a BFRO expedition in Mendocino, California, years ago. It was fate that brought them back together in Oregon when Cliff needed help with the museum.
This video is a must-watch for any Bigfoot enthusiast. It's inspiring to see how Cliff and Melissa turned their passion into a reality. We encourage all our readers to check out the North American Bigfoot Center and support this unique museum. After all, every Sasquatch needs a home!
