Tom Biscardi and Bigfoot

• [Searching for Bigfoot Inc.] is Tom Biscardi's new venture for his multi-state search for America's King Kong

• http://www.lorencoleman.com/biscardi.html - August 23, 2005 - Very good story about Biscardi's recent "We've caught a Bigfoot, we'll show pictures in a couple of days", and "Oh no, we didn't catch a bigfoot, we were scammed"
  • Coleman asks, What will tomorrow bring? Isn't this all such a detour from the real search for Bigfoot? Won't it harm the credibility of Bigfoot research? The recent and past history would seem to indicate as much.
  • According to Coleman, on Coast To Coast AM on August 23rd, many listeners called in to ask if they would get refunds of the fees they paid for streaming video after hearing Biscardi claim that his group had a Bigfoot in custody. Biscardi was evasive, and George Noory advised listeners to contact their credit card companies.
  • According to Coleman, some one called into the show to claim 9,000,000 hits on the Biscardi website after a Coast-To-Coast program. It's interesting that someone would claim that since only the Biscardi group has access to the actual statistics of their website. Unfortunately, the Biscard group has misquoted traffic figures in the past, and in general doesn't seem to understand the differences between hits, pages views, and visitors. On September 8, 2005, Biscardi's website reported these hit counts on video clips available there:
    • Another clip from 'Legend of Bigfoot' [NEW!] 4697 hits
    • Florida Skunk Ape 15818 hits
    • Why Bigfoot is Real 14132 hits
    • Bigfoot is a bigfoot 24525 hits
    • Video of Ivan Marx 8747 hits
    • Clip of Intro to 'Legend of Bigfoot' 4814 hits
    • These are historical totals since the site was launched in May or June of 2005. One would expect much higher hit counts if 9 million people had actually visited the site after the Coast To Coast AM site. Given that there have been about 4 appearances of Biscardi on Coast-To-Coast AM, and the prominent linking of the above clips to the home page of the site for most of the appearances, a more realistic traffic number is probably about 10,000-20,000 people visit the site in conjunction with any particular appearance on Coast-To-Coast AM.

• Tom Biscardi is well known as a Las Vegas promoter, and he has tried to skillfully use his appearances on Coast-To-Coast to promote his organization. He is doubtless aware that some people have written online, "I tend to listen more to guys on George Noory's show than those on some rinky-dink radio show."

Other recent threads and articles related to Biscardi:

• Some of the many "Capture is imminent" stories released in the summer of 2005:
  • [Wyoming Newspaper copy of press release]
  • [Discussion in July 2005]
  • [Discussion of The New Adventures of Tom Biscard] Some quotes from the thread:
    • Bicardi just seemed so arrogant.
    • Yes I saw the apology. Blamed it on someone else ofcourse, the loser!
    • If you paid Tom Biscardi 60 bucks,...then you probably bought the time machines for 19.99 out of the back of comicbooks
  • [Unexplained Mysteries Discussion Forum]
    • "This man is a Las Vegas promoter," and his actions speak louder than words, Coleman commented
    • Anybody who gives this guy a single cent is a fool
  • [Discussion thread on August 20 2005] where someone is writing about Tom clearly stated multiple times it was 100% for sure a Biig Foot.
• [Stories In The News - Bigfoot] - August 22, 2005
  • I listened to Tom Biscardi the other night on Coast to Coast. He is going to take his big foot and shove it in his mouth soon. I did not need to have a lie detector to tell that he was full of it. Now he wants to charge people to watch his Bigfoot bull. Only an idiot would buy into this.
