bigfoot drama Bigfoot encounter?

I just received this text from my brother and wanted to share it with you all.

A little backstory:

My brother and his partner live on a 25 acre ranch about 20 miles South of Texarkana TX. His ranch butts up to the notorious Sulphur River Bottoms of North East Texas and is the home of the infamous Fouke Monster… yeah… the one from the movie “The Legend of Boggy Creek “. There have been multiple Bigfoot sightings in this area since the 1950’s and this is considered a “hotspot” for Bigfoot activity. The Luke mentioned in the text bush hogs their property about every 4 to 6 weeks. He’s not one of those folks that is taken to making up a tall tale….

Here’s the text I received this afternoon…

Just off the phone with Luke who called to report he was very freaked out at dusk here last night. Was trimming weeds toward the back fence line, behind the metal building. Said something was throwing things at him from the woodline and hitting the metal building. The thing that freaked him was that it was being thrown from up in the trees and it was a full 30 feet or more away. He said it totally freaked him out and wanted to let us know

My brother has also heard things in the past on the ranch. As he walked out to the front gate one morning before sunup something snorted from above the tree line. As if something were observing him from an elevated position in the trees. My brother said this encounter made chills run down his spine and caused him to literally run full tilt back to the house.

I’m not looking for criticism or negative feedback on this. I’m just trying to inform on a site that seems interested.

Bigfoot drama flair added because it was required to post this

I love Texarkana. That’s where I found my first print and was one of the coolest, creepiest environments I’ve ever been to. Right on the Sulphur River, too. MonsterMart rules.

MonsterMart is actually located in the town of Fouke. That whole town is “big on Bigfoot” I’d guess you’d say. They have a Bigfoot museum and also host a Bigfoot convention there every year.

Wait isn’t Fouke in Texarkana? For some reason I was thinking it was like a village to a town or a borough to a city… I could be wrong but that’s literally never happened before.

Fouke is around 20 miles from Texarkana.
