Minnesota Bigfoot Conference Back In October

Spooky season is about one month away and it's time to start preparing for it and all the fun things that pop up during this time of the year! One of those things is the 3rd Annual Minnesota Bigfoot Conference.

Bigfoot is a hot topic in the Northland and Minnesota in general. A few summers back, a northern Minnesota nurse was traveling when she says she spotted Bigfoot crossing the road in front of her vehicle! This happened near Ely.

This is one of many Bigfoot sightings and connections in the Northland. Recently, a video of a supposed Bigfoot sighting got my attention. It was filmed and put on the internet by a family in Northern Minnesota who was celebrating Christmas when they spotted something in the woods.

There are many that say it is a hoax but some believe it is real. It has millions of views on YouTube and counting. I think it looks a little bit suspicious myself but I really want it to be real because how cool would that be?
