30 October 2004 Lincoln, Logan County, Illinois Class A #30203

Nighttime sighting by motorists along I-55 near Lincoln

Late at night in October 2004 the witness was riding as a passenger on a southbound highway toward Springfield, Illinois, with a companion driving. At the roadside in the headlight beams they first mistook a crouched figure for dumped trash, then saw it rise upright and step back. They observed it standing fully illuminated for a few seconds as they passed closely, and both occupants exclaimed that it was Bigfoot.

A quick ask from the person behind the Anomadex: if you allow analytics, Google Analytics shows me which places, phenomena and searches you're most curious about. That tells me which regions and sources to add next and what to make easier to find. It never sees your name or anything you send me, and nothing is set unless you say yes. Privacy
