Bigfoot And Fireworks, Did Matt Moneymaker Steal Someone's Idea?
During the Indiana episode of Finding Bigfoot, Matt Moneymaker and his team investigated some sightings reported around Morgan-Monroe State Forest. After trying a multitude of techniques to attract Bigfoots in the area, like howling and a crying fake babydoll, the team finally decided to use a never-seen-on-TV-before technique that lit up the entire night sky: Fireworks.
As we all know, bright lights and loud noises will attract any type of curious animal to an area. The exploding fireballs, firecrackers, and bottle rockets going off tonight will surely spark the interests of many Bigfoots in the woods. But how often has this technique been tried in the field? Apparently, this method has been done by other groups before. According to The Bigfootery Enquirer, they originally used fireworks two years ago during an expedition on July 4th. In a post entitled, "Damn BRFO Stole Our Idea Regarding Fireworks and Another Network is Working Our Deadliest Catch Angle", the author wrote the that they practically invented "fireworkian bigfooting":
Was just running though a few old posts and found we had put forth the idea of fireworks nearly two years ago. Matt invented wood knocking, we invented fireworkian bigfooting. Some fine company we keep. Doubt the claim, here’s the post.The article from two years ago about "Unprecedented Cooperative Expedition" in the Appalachians :
The expedition was held over the July 4th holiday weekend.
Some of the cutting edge techniques used that can be released for the general knowledge of bigfootery included:
- use of fireworks, those seems to fascinate the sasquatch. Results are pending detailed investigation to separate the ooohs and aaaahs of the participants from the possible calls of the bigfoot.
- sound blasting using the videos contained in a earlier post. They were used to drive the creatures toward a series of camtrackers. These instruments, being bigfoot kryptonite, further channelized and concentrated the target subjects toward a heavily used intersection where mayhem erupted when we scared up both a deer and a yote.
- liberal applications of adult debauchery in the hope of attracting attention from the creatures, but not the rangers and other LEOs.
- attaching colorful blobs of plastic to the roofs of cars and trucks.
Well, uh ...
ReplyDelete"The Bigfootery Enquirer" is a tongue-in-cheek blog only, not an amateur research group. There is no group by that name, and the July 4th "expedition" mentioned above did not occur at all.
That should have been obvious (eh hem ...) to anyone reading the blog, but in case you're wondering whether it was real, here is what the blog mentioned about the participants:
"Some of the groups that RSVP’d a “hell yes”, and even showed up:
Delawareans Interested in Cryptids and Karate, Ohio Cryptid Research Associate Partners, Appalachians Advancing Cryptid Concerns, North American Association of Cryptids and Paranormalist, Western Appalachian Cryptid Organization, North Carolina Anthropological Associates, Gullible Bigfoot Field Reports R’Us and The Shuttle Bunnies."
Thus, whatever may have been mentioned about who was doing whatever in the field at a particular date, should not be considered serious nor credible.
Shawn, take a break. Go out and shoot off some fireworks today.
Sounds like a whole lotta east coast who-ha.
ReplyDeleteHappy 4th you crazy bastards! Bigfoot rulez 4ever
Wasn't it Bobo who had the idea for fireworks anyway?
ReplyDeleteThat's what I thought too. In fact, MM didn't look really thrilled with the fireworks theory and got bleeped a few times commenting on it. I don't know if the idea was "stolen" but everyone from the midwest knows that if you want to buy the best or most resonably priced fireworks, go to Indiana.
DeleteHey guys take it from tater hole please dont shoot bottle rockets outcha tater hole.Happy fourth
ReplyDeleteHow about lighting a fart on fire instead?
DeleteOne last post...in support of how hard it is to run a 24/7 blog.

Fact Bigfoots love Bacon and fireworks because they saw MM eating some while lighting fireworks.
Fact MM taught the Bigfoots that cows are people food by walking up to one while he was stalking a cow and hit one on the nose with a rolled up newspaper and said NO!!!!
Fact Chuck Norris cannot fight MM or the world would end so Chuck grew a bird out of respect for MM

DeleteFact: Matt Moneymaker was beaten senseless by a quadriplegic.
Fact: Babies steal candy from Matt Moneymaker.
Fact: Matt Moneymaker was the first person in medical history to be diagnosed with inside out penis.
This shit is re-goddamn-fucking-diculous! Why the fuck was penis censored? You can say penis on television. Shawn, can you hear me up there in administrator land? When the censorship on a Bigfoot site prevents people from adequately mocking Matt Moneymaker then the censorship has gone too far!
DeletePeople on 'ludes should not drive!
DeleteLudes as in quaaludes? What are you like 90? Do you come from the golden age of drugs when pentobarbital and secobarbital were all the rage? I didn't think there was anybody that old who knows how to use a computer.

My BS facts turned into an augment about drugs and censorship USA USA USA USA.
ReplyDelete1 more thing to think about
Fact MM doesn't call blast to lure in Squatches he uses a recording of his howl to warn Squatches to leave his cows and bacon alone

Not one comment worth the read. This site is overrun by lame brain idiots with a mental age of 12 and a self absorbed fascination with their own bodily functions below the waist, and that is being generous. Bye y'all. Do something Shawn or watch this site fade into obscurity as all the intelligent people leave, never to return.
ReplyDeleteYes, Shawn, this person speaks the truth. Please do something. Intelligent comments on this site are at about 5%.
Delete.....and on the glorious 4th of July as well, tchoh guys, tell me again what youre celebrating on this day ?
ReplyDeleteOnly thing your doing with fireworks is scaring everything in a 20 mile radius away.
ReplyDeleteMatt Moneymaker simply cannot and will not bring himself to admit the truth- and that is that after dedicating half his life to searching for bigfoot, he has never seen any bigfoot at all, ever, so he lies and says that he has.
ReplyDeleteAnd a few MM nutswingers always rush to his defense and attack anyone who challenges MM's bullshit rather than consider or deal with the truth.
