"The Bigfoots' stomp... I should develop some school spirit. Go team."
— Max in "Chrysalis"
The Blackwell Bigfoots are the football team of Blackwell Academy. The club's name could be based on the rumors of a Bigfoot living in the forests of Arcadia Bay.[1]
Across the Blackwell campus, there are many references to the team in the form of posters and flyers.
Dana Ward also mentions the impending Bigfoots vs. Razorbacks game on Friday (the day of the tornado). The game will begin at 7pm on the Blackwell field. Dana herself is a big fan of the Bigfoots, made evident by a banner for them being hung up in her room, and her slate, eager for the team to win.
October 11, 7PM - Bigfoots vs Sunnydale Razorbacks (Blackwell field)

Trivia[]
Concept Art done by Gary Jamroz-Palma. The banner on the right wall reads "Fishermen".
As evident from the Blackwell Hallway concept art, the Bigfoots were originally meant to be called "The Fishermen".
The Bigfoots sell merchandise which you can order at their e-mail address BigStuff@BigFootBall.trog.
The Dillon Panthers that the Blackwell Bigfoots were going to play on November 6th is clearly a reference to the TV show "Friday Night Lights", where the main football team features in the show is named the Dillon Panthers, based in the fictional town of Dillon, Texas.
