I did not know that. I used to live at the apartments on W. Homestead and Foothills Expressway. Is Andronico's still in that little shopping plaza on Foothill? I loved that store - it had anything and everything you could want. I spent a lot of time in Palo Alto and the Woodside/Atherton area. I really miss that area.
"This body has little to do with Bigfoot and everything to do with a Sasquatch costume that someone developed after watching too many gorilla movies," warns Loren Coleman, who runs the influential Cryptomundo blog devoted to strange and unknown animals. "The teeth that seem to have been placed in the mouth could be my late mother's false teeth."
"I've had interactions with Tom Biscardi in the past, and based on that history, I would say that anything he is involved in is suspect," Idaho State anthropologist and Bigfoot investigator Jeffrey Meldrum told Scientific American.
As for the Bigfoot body in the freezer, says Meldrum, "it just looks like a costume with some fake guts thrown on top for effect."
An online Halloween-costume store, TheHorrorDome.com, based in Port Washington, N.Y., sells a full-sized Sasquatch suit that strongly resembles the thawed-out corpse, right down to the height.
"It definitely looks like our costume," owner Jerry Parrino, who's been keeping track of the Bigfoot body story, told FOXNews.com.
Two things stand out about Biscardi's claims: first of all, that he's not going to be presenting a body — and in fact claims to not even know where the body is — and secondly, that the DNA evidence he's promising won't be accompanied by a "chain of custody" that details where it came from and how it got to the lab.
If all of this is a bunch of BS, nobody will ever take this man seriously again. And rightly so. Not that they ever did.

Yeah, Andronico's is still there. It's certainly a classy grocery store in a classy area of Los Altos. One of my very first jobs was working as a barista at the Starbucks on Main St., just a few blocks from there. Funny thing about this bigfoot deal, I could have gone and likely could have acquired a press pass. A close friend of mine works for KLIV radio here in the area. Unfortunately, getting time off of work would have been near impossible today. Heh, the press conference is going on as I'm typing this!
