'''[[:wp:Bigfoot|Bigfoot]]''' (or '''Sasquatch''') is a [[Myths in GTA San Andreas|mythical]] ape-like creature claimed to have been spotted around North America, and similar creatures in other locations around the world, such as the Yeti. The existence of Bigfoot in [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] has been the center of many Internet-based rumors since the game was released. It is impossible to locate where the idea originated, although one theory suggests that this is due to mention of the artist ''Bigfoot'' in the brochure that came with the game. Surprisingly, these rumors still persists despite the fact that Bigfoot does not exist in the game. | '''[[:wp:Bigfoot|Bigfoot]]''' (or '''Sasquatch''') is a [[Myths in GTA San Andreas|mythical]] ape-like creature claimed to have been spotted around North America, and similar creatures in other locations around the world, such as the Yeti.

The idea of Bigfoot's existence fits nicely into the diverse world of the [[San Andreas in GTA III Era|San Andreas]] countryside, especially in the [[Flint County]] and [[Whetstone]] areas, with large virgin forests and "spooky" locations, where sightings are reported most frequently. Several screenshots and videos, often blurry and of low quality, have been posted claiming to show the creature in the game. Sometimes genuine in-game captures of unofficial [[modifications]] or doctored images and videos can fool the the reader. | The idea of Bigfoot's existence fits nicely into the diverse world of the [[San Andreas in GTA III Era|San Andreas]] countryside, especially in the [[Flint County]] and [[Whetstone]] areas, with large virgin forests and "spooky" locations, where sightings are reported most frequently.

In an official interview with [[Terry Donovan]] released in 2005, he stated, "There is no Bigfoot, just like in real life."<ref>http://www.1up.com/features/afterglow-gta-san-andreas</ref> However, there is a small but vocal group of supporters of the creature's existence. | In an official interview with [[Terry Donovan]] released in 2005, he stated, "There is no Bigfoot, just like in real life."<ref>http://www.1up.com/features/afterglow-gta-san-andreas</ref> However, there is a small but vocal group of supporters of the creature's existence. | ||
