Cliff Barackman – “It’s a Center. It exists so I can get my fix in.”
*****
At sQuatch Fest 2021 in Kelso Washington, Cliff gave us the NABC update. Why? He knows that with the Plague and the Fires, some may not have been able to come. Also, those that live far away may never get to come.
Financially getting through the PLAGUE was tough and Cliff thanks the Members. Cliff started a membership program that allowed income to flow. Members would look forward to 15 minute mini documentaries that Cliff would make available to Members only. Smart.
Many will never get to his Bigfoot Center, so with the visual of a slide show, he guided us through the Center.
First of all it is Center. A museum, but so much more.
Gift Shop with Bigfoot Learning on the walls. This was once called Pase One. If you visited Cliff, Mellissa, and Scott in 2019, this is what you saw. Why start a museum with two phases still yet to be completed? The Answer, why not? Fan are fans, and it was still very cool.
Now in 2021, safe to say that phase two and phase three are completed, but of course we did not ask Cliff face to face. His session was not joined with a Q&A session.
When we did see Cliff at his vender’s booth, we pretty much forgot what we were wanting to ask him.
Example: during his talk he mentioned the Parabolic Listening Device. The word “Parabolic” was written on a hand, to make sure of later success. Later, with the correct word listed like a tattoo, we said, “Where can we get a Hyperbolic Listening Device?”
Embarrassing, and Cliff was quick to notice that, that word was something else. We tried to play it cool.

Wise Advice:
Don’t tell authorities right away when you have a Bigfoot Sighting. Give researchers like Cliff a chance to get their first. A common result of telling authorities that that they tend to destroy the scene, in ways that seem like they are just going about their normal business.
Note: Bigfoot Eruption says that this is a clue…
