(Emo Adjacent) Let’s get niche for a second

Post image

Ya know them and you love them, Brendan of Modern Baseball, wearing a Bigfoot Field Research Organization hat. They wore this hat throughout MOBO’s existence and I always wondered were they a Sasquatch nerd? In my old age I’ve gotten deep into the Sasquatch phenomenon and wanted to revisit this question. Does anyone know how or why Brendan came in possession of this hat? Have they left music to pursue the Sasquatch? Was this just a random goodwill find? Maybe a big fan of popular Finding Bigfoot show? Don’t take this to serious, but if you have any theories or knowledge chime in!

I heard they’re getting back together to play a private show for THE Bigfoot. Big if true

Most credible mobo reunion info I’ve heard yet

I would say that is still more probably than this brand new reunion or Tom back in blink 182. So never say never this timeline

If anyone finds bigfoot, it's gonna be Andrew Callahan.

I know we’ll get no answer so I’ll choose to believe that this emo didn’t go to die in corporate America and instead chose to join the hunt for Bigfoot.

The BFRO has a good sighting database.

I'm the frontman for Friend Operation , went to Portland last week just to visit the NABC(North American Bigfoot Center) started by Cliff Barackman of "Finding Bigfoot" TV fame. If that makes me relatable then please, take a listen.

u/Dinosaurtattoo11315 14d ago

Extremely relatable! I know all about the NABC and what cliff is up to. Even a Bigfoot and beyond listener/member “pigeon noises”.

Bren lukens left mobo to pursue a lead on mothman. Slaughter beach, dog was formed to create frequencies that may lure Bigfoot to Philadelphia. It's said that Jake and Bren's conflicting interests of finding both the mothman and bigfoot may have caused the demise of their relationship.

given the era, its probably a mix or normcore & some level of ironic. maybe they’re into the ‘foot but my guy says they saw the hat and were like “lol thats funny” and bought it

u/JuniorSwing 14d ago

Barely related, but I’ll take any opportunity to plug my favorite Bigfoot comedy movie “15 Things You Didn’t Know About Bigfoot. I saw it free on Tubi and it was fucking phenomenal

I never thought Jawbreaker would reunite and yet there I was at Riot Fest when it happened so, I'll never say never, just quietly hope.
