Okay, so usually when I head over to Peoria, it’s all about testing my luck on the Riverboat and, let’s be honest, probably losing a few bucks. But now? There’s a new game in town—and it’s called Spot the Sasquatch. A local truck driver’s viral TikTok has the whole area buzzing, claiming he caught a glimpse of Bigfoot wandering through the woods.
I couldn’t be more excited! Forget blackjack—now I’m out here squinting into the trees, hoping to catch sight of that blurry legend myself. Is he real? Did the truck driver just have a wild imagination or a shaky camera? Who cares! It’s got everyone talking and a whole new reason to make the trek to Peoria. And if I don’t win big on the slots, maybe I’ll at least get a selfie with a shadowy forest friend.
Even the local businesses are leaning into the hype. My next stop? Grabbing a “Sasquatch Latte” at a Peoria café and heading out on my very own Bigfoot expedition. Here’s hoping he’s got a better poker face than me!
