Petition to Unicode: Make the Fog Bank Bigfoot the Official Bigfoot Emoji
The Issue
There are emojis for unicorns 🦄, trolls 🧌, and even smiling piles of poop 💩—but somehow, Bigfoot, the most legendary cryptid of them all, still hasn’t made it into the emoji lexicon. That ends now.
We’re calling on the Unicode Consortium, the official gatekeepers of emoji, to approve a Bigfoot emoji—but not just any Bigfoot.
We want Fog Bank Bigfoot: the rugged, mysterious, coastal icon born from the redwood forests and ocean fog of Northern California and Southern Oregon.
Why Fog Bank Bigfoot?
🐾 Authenticity: He’s not a cartoon. He’s a lifestyle.
🌲 Rooted in Place: Crescent City to Brookings—this Bigfoot is the Pacific Northwest.
👣 Local Legend, Global Icon: From crab pots to hoodie drops, Fog Bank Bigfoot represents more than mystery—he’s about community, resilience, and believing in the unbelievable.
The Time Is Now
Unicode is already considering a “hairy creature” emoji for Emoji 17.0. That’s fine—but we believe the world deserves a Bigfoot with real soul, real swagger, and maybe an earring.
With enough public support, we can show that people don’t just want a mythical emoji—they want our mythical emoji.
👊 Join the Movement
Sign this petition to urge Unicode and tech giants like Apple, Google, and Samsung to make Fog Bank Bigfoot the official Bigfoot emoji
Let’s get this legend on keyboards around the world.
Let me know if you’d like a mockup image of the emoji included with the petition, or if you’d like this posted to Change.org for you.
