I have the upmost respect for your group because i am a firm believer in this creature. I did not ever believe in &#8220;BIGFOOT&#8221;until one night in september while doing security for a new windmill farm located in Farmington,Pa. It was around 3:30 am and as usual about and around that time people do tend to dose off as i was doing, but waking up every 2 minutes or so. I was sitting in the gravel parking lot at the site where the office trailers were for the companies who were doing the construction for the windmills. I awoke to 3 loud screams and wondered what the hell was that. As i was looking around the area that i was guarding and noticed directly in front of me about 40 yards or so a black rounded object that was to the left of the pole with a street light on it. Also this had a big piece of plywood which was in front of the lightpole which blocked the pole and had 14 electric meters on the plywood for the office trailers. Also there was a small pile of gravel with mud,clay and dirt mixed in with the gravel. I looked at this for approximately a minute or so and then disregarded it as a shadow from the light above because it did not move.<br \/>\nAs soon as i turned my head i caught movement out of the corner of my eye and immediatley focused back at that same point and noticed that the &#8220;SHADOW&#8221; was gone. I continued to watch this particular area very closley and to no avail THERE IT WAS. It showed itself from under the light and was in a hunched down position moving very fast, dark black in color,very shinny coat,and HUGE. It&#8217;s thighs were imense as well as the rest of it, and as i watched the BIGFOOT walk hunched over it began to raise up while trying not to be noticed. I saw the back of it&#8217;s head when it was raising up to walk normally and it was cone shaped. This whole sighting was over in about 2-3 seconds due to it going behind a office trailer. To be truthful i was scared shitless even though being armed to the T with all the things i carry on my duty belt while doing Constable work. Immediatley i called on our 2 way radio that the company had provided us to the other guard who was doing roving patrol and asked him to get there to my spot ASAP. He did arrive and i had told him what had happened and of course he laughed at me. But the next night while i was out he said he heard screams like i did. Also that same night he went to a porta john to use the bathroom. He said when he was in there that the porta john was lifted off of the ground and shaken and then put back down (Don the security guard weighs 300 + pounds ). He called me on the radio and i responded within 2 minutes at his location. He had asked me if i was messing around with<br \/>\nhim and my reponse was what are you talking about. Then he did explain to me what had happened. He also stated that there was a very fowl odor when this was happeneing to him (Ex: Rotting flesh, BO, Urine, etc )I told him it was bigfoot,,and he replied , &#8221; I kind of believe you now&#8221;<br \/>\nThat morning we walked over to the area i saw Bigfoot and saw with my own eyes one foot print that was outlined in the gravel,mud,clay and dirt. I was saying to myself,,,wow,this really happened and i did see what i saw. Where Dons activity happened was pure gravel and no mud, clay or dirt so no prints<br \/>\nwere found. I left work at 6am and proceeded home. When i arrived at home i immediately got on the internet and called a group here in pa close to me called <a href=\"http:\/\/pabigfootsociety.com\/\">http:\/\/pabigfootsociety.com\/<\/a> [2] . Eric the researcher called me with within 2 hours of me posting a message to him on his site. I could tell that he was excited and that i was telling him the absolute truth about my experience. He asked me if it was possible to come out that night and see if they could get any response from what i had saw. I told him yes you can come out after 8:30 pm. He did show up with about 12 other people. They all had tape recorders, and hand held thermal imaging devices. They began there experiment, whooping,tree knocks,screams and within 5 minutes they got an answer back. Not one but 3 screams and tree knocks from 3 different areas that were close to us. Eric told me that there was 3 bigfoots and not 1. My mouth dropped open and i said &#8220;what&#8221;? Being that i worked there i was very scared to even come back to work being that i saw one there and only thinking one was there,but dealing with three of these bigfoots,oh crap. Eric and his team did come back several times and got only one response back given on the other times that they were there and said that southwestern pa is a very &#8220;HOTSPOT&#8221;for activity due to there is a lot of caverns in this area. I do not work there anymore but i have learned a lot form this experience&#8221;NOT TO BE AFRAID&#8221; and not to harm or shoot these animals which i would not do now unless my life depended on it. FYI: 1973 Jumonsville, Pa sightings, 1978 Republic, Pa sightings, 2005-2006, Downtown Uniontown sighting, 1998, Keisterville, Pa sighting and so on. Due to having<br \/>\nnumerous caves in this area it seems to me that there is alot of sightings in and around the<br \/>\nSouthwestern part of Pa.<br \/>\nI am now trying to capture one of these animals on film,camcorder to show the world that they do exist and that they are not fake or fiction. From first hand experience i can tell you that i believe in<br \/>\n&#8220;BIGFOOT&#8221; now. I would like to invite you and your group here if you have the means by doing so in the near future to explore southwestern,pa along with your help to show the world that they do exist among us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"field field-name-field-priority-level- field-type-list-text field-label-above\">\n<div class=\"field-label\">Priority Level::<\/div>\n<div class=\"field-items\">\n<div class=\"field-item even\">Normal 2-5 years<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Time and Place: Year: 2009 Month: September Day of Month (number only &#8211; e.g. 16): September, 2010 Time of Day: 3:30 am County: Pennsylvania Fayette Conditions: Terrain Description: Thick wooded dense area with numerous cavarens.
