North Dartmouth Bigfoot Sightings Turn Heads

What’s up with all the Sasquatch sightings in North Dartmouth? I'm not talking about "the" actual Bigfoot, but rather the massive wooden roadside cutouts that I'm just noticing.

If you travel enough backroads around the SouthCoast, you get used to spotting the usual stuff: deer crossing, wild turkeys, even a loose cow or two. However, recently, while cruising through North Dartmouth where Shawmut Ave meets High Hill Road, something definitely made me do a double take.

Actually, two double takes.

Full-on Sasquatch wooden cutouts stood guard at separate driveways about a half-mile apart. They're large and impossible to miss. I can’t unsee them.

One of these mystery Bigfoots (Bigfeet?) even took things a step further, rocking a festive Christmas hat like he’s fully committed to the holiday spirit. Honestly, that somehow makes the whole vibe even better.

I have no clue who owns them. No clue if there’s a story behind them. No clue if it’s neighbor rivalry, an inside joke, or just plain ol' coincidence. The only lead I have is that the owners of a newish and quaint restaurant in Westport called Backyard has one of these giant cutouts as their mascot.

Perhaps there's a connection?

Either way, it got me talking, it got you reading, and now I’m officially curious:
