Witness Account:
I was on my way back from New Orleans, LA on TX Hwy 105 westbound between FM 770 and TX Hwy 146 at approximately 2:00 in the morning. My wife and I were watching for deer along the edge of the woods, she had seen several already. I was getting frustrated because I had only seen one, so I was on a heightened state of alert. I was driving at 70mph. I had come across a little opening on the right hand side of the road, it was a iron pipe gate that had probably been an entrance for a hunting lease. I saw a tall creature that was at least 7 feet tall, it had black stringy hair and it had a lighter medium tan colored face and hands. It was facing at me, it appeared to be entering the woods. It had one foot over the gate and another on my side. I never saw its eyes. I was in shock, it happened so fast, that I didn't even tell my wife until at least a minute later. At first I wasn't sure what I had just seen, all my life I've heard stories of bigfoot, and have had more interest than ordinary people. I have family just south of Shreveport, LA in Converse, LA. My grandfather has a photo from before I was born of a Bigfoot footprint. They showed it to us as kids and that has been with me ever since. When I told my wife, she said how did you see that. I said I don't know, I just saw it. It was real. My wife said we should turn around and check it out some more, I said no. I was scared, and I was sure it was long gone. We kept driving.
