While driving home (southbound) from work I was crossing the long bridge between Mt. Pleasant and Pittsburg Texas on hwy 271. There was road construction. I slowed down to about 25 mph and there was a large hairy thing about to cross the road. I could not believe what I was seeing. It looked like a big gorilla with hair all over. It was about 8 feet tall very big and wide shouldered. It walked with a lazy walk. It was bent over but walking like a man with long dark hair all over it's body. When I passed it, it started out into the road and another car was coming from the other direction. It walked in front of the other car and I saw it through my review mirror when the other cars lights hit it. I was told by another person about a year ago that they saw the same thing. I thought they were crazy but now I don't think so.... I went back the next day to see if there were footprints. However, the grass was so tall I could not find anything.
