A drinks company has launched a unique contest that offers a $1 million bounty for evidence of Bigfoot. Hard Mountain Dew announced its first-ever 'Bigfoot Bounty' in a press release this month, inviting Bigfoot hunters and enthusiasts to submit their findings through the company's website. The deadline for submissions is set for the end of November.

Participants in the contest must provide at least four out of seven specified types of evidence to qualify for the cash prize. The types of evidence include paw and hand prints, thermal images, hair samples, audio recordings, and environmental remnants, such as broken branches that could be attributed to Bigfoot. Interestingly, the final category for evidence is described as a photo that appears to catch Bigfoot photobombing the participant, suggesting a playful aspect to the competition.

Bryce Johnson, a researcher known for his appearances in various documentaries about Bigfoot, will be judging the entries. The seriousness of the contest has been called into question, as some aspects appear to be somewhat tongue-in-cheek. The company stated in its press release that Hard Mountain Dew enjoys a good contest, even if it involves a creature that exists only in legend—at least for now. This playful tone indicates that the contest may not solely focus on genuine evidence but could also reward entertaining or humorous submissions.

As the contest progresses, it remains to be seen whether someone will present credible evidence of Bigfoot or if the prize will go to the most amusing entry. Regardless, the contest is generating interest in the Bigfoot community and among those who enjoy exploring the unexplained. With the deadline approaching, many enthusiasts may be preparing their submissions, hoping to capture the elusive creature on film or provide other forms of evidence.

While the contest is designed to be fun, it also highlights the ongoing fascination with Bigfoot and the various claims surrounding its existence. As the submissions come in, it will be intriguing to see what types of evidence participants choose to present and how the judging process unfolds. Paranormal Country has not confirmed the details of this contest, but the buzz surrounding it suggests that it will attract a wide range of entries, from serious attempts to humorous takes on the legendary creature.
