Account
This report, although it contains few specifics, may not all be drawn from one incident. Rex Cooper filled out a brief report form for Jody Cook and George Clappison (Ohio Bigfoot Research and Study Group) and told of several apparent encounters and track finds, but specifics were not well sorted out. Rex said his age group considered the Grassman to be playful.
