Account
The guest and a childhood friend were driving west on Route 9 at dusk in October. A tall lanky brown-haired biped broke from brush and crossed the road right to left into woods in a couple seconds, gliding rather than bouncing. Both men were stunned and the passenger asked if it was a Bigfoot.
