City council designates town Official Bigfoot Capital of Alabama

Source: al.com, by Kelly Kazek

Lately, everything's coming up Bigfoot in Conecuh County. Numerous residents have reported Sasquatch sightings, according to the Gulf Coast Bigfoot Research Organization, which led officials from the town of Evergreen to invite Bigfoot researchers to the annual Collard Green Festival in January. While there, researchers saw what they believed to be evidence of Sasquatch in the area. Click here to read what researchers discovered.

Several stories about those events went viral, prompting members of the Evergreen City Council to discuss how to capitalize on the attention. On Tuesday night, council members voted unanimously to designate their town, population 3,800, the Official Bigfoot Capital of Alabama.

Councilman Luther Upton, who introduced the resolution, said he has never seen a Sasquatch. "But I've never seen God either and I believe in him," he said. "A lot of people have seen these things. They aren't quacks. They are legitimate people who've seen these things."

Because of that, Upton feels, "There's got to be something to this."

Something to it? But we gots pictures!
