Sasquatch Sighting Near Obama Vacation Home!

MARTHA'S VINEYARD (SR) - Local residents on this quiet island may not be sleeping so well since the reported sighting of a Bigfoot last night, just down the beach from where the First Family is vacationing.

An unidentified woman called Martha's Vineyard police Wednesday night at 10:08 to report a "Bigfoot-type creature" slowly moving along the beach in the moonlight. Police quickly alerted Secret Service agents guarding the Obama's home, who reported seeing nothing unusual, but as a precaution did request that First Lady Michelle cut short her evening walk.

While Sasaquatch sightings are not uncommon in Massachussetts, they are very rare on the island of Martha's Vineyard.

My comments: Holy-pope-on-a-rope, just reading this gave me chicken skin! They need to move the First Family to someplace safer, like maybe Afghanistan!

Scooter's report brings up a few journalistic red flags.
1. The obvious political slant
2. The lack of other supporting news sources on this
3. And, although not unheard, Bigfoot on an isolated island

None-the-less we did try to contact Police Chief Erik G. Blake and Executive Assistant Suzanne Cioffi of the Oak Bluffs police department, to confirm this report. While we have heard nothing yet we will have an update if they return our calls and emails.

To get an idea of the geography of this siting we have provided a map below.

Skamania 3rd Annual Bigfoot Bash

Every Year in late August Skamania county celebrates their 1984 ordinance, declaring Bigfoot a protected species. Although most places on the web have a small snippet of the ordinance we have the whole thing here.

Today, August 27th, 2010, they are celebrating it again, although they have not promoted it very heavily this year. Even the website seems to be below par to previous two years. This is the third annual Bigfoot Bash and Bounty, they are 45 minutes away from downtown Portland. If you get a chance go check them out! They have tons of activities planned and vendors with plenty of good stuff.

this is a great opportunity for you to read the county ordinance at our earlier post here.
