"Washington is the Bigfoot and UFO capital of America by a large distance. It has the most Bigfoot reports of any state, 601, the most UFO reports per person, and it googles Bigfoot more than any other state. Pierce County alone has 76 Bigfoot reports." according to James Oliver, founder of Answer Socrates

So on Halloween night in your neighborhood, it might be a kid in a Bigfoot costume, or it could be the REAL thing. BOO!
