* "Jack Links" beef jerky has an ongoing commercial campaign centered around various humans deliberately annoying a Sasquatch and invariably [[Bullying a Dragon|getting attacked as a result.]]
* A previous series of commercials for Pop-Tarts featured a yeti explaining how placing Pop-Tarts in the freezer made for a good summertime snack. Then the humans he was talking to would scream in fright, and then he would do the same. Example [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZDvKdSeVF0 here].
{{quote| "Listen to the Yeti! Kellog's Pop-Tarts! You can freeze 'em, then eat 'em!"}}
* Also the [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0vz2nxdM0qc Tab Clear ad], in which the Sasquatch is revealed to be [[World War One|Kaiser Wilhelm II]], fallen from his zeppelin into the mud of Oregon. Suddenly everything is clear...
* A brand of iced coffee used Bigfoot for advertisements on TV and radio. One such ad mentioned that most witnesses saw Bigfoot between the hours of midnight to 3 am -- either because Bigfoot was raiding store fridges at night looking for iced coffee, or because most of the witnesses were drunk.

* Comedian [[Mitch Hedberg]] [[Lampshade Hanging|lampshaded]] the fact that photographers always seem to end up having blurry photographs of Bigfoot.
{{quote| "I think Bigfoot is blurry, that's the problem. It's not the photographer's fault. Bigfoot is ''blurry''... and that's extra scary to me. Because there's a large, out-of-focus monster... roaming the countryside."}}

Line 68:
* Bigfoot shows up in a deleted scene from ''[[Bruce Almighty]]'', as another example of Bruce using his powers to boost his ratings. {{spoiler|Not content with finding Bigfoot, he goes skydiving, lets his parachute malfunction, and then survives by ''landing on Bigfoot.''}}
* In ''[[A Goofy Movie]]'', [[Goofy]] and Max have a run-in with Bigfoot while out fishing.
{{quote| '''Max:''' Dad, IT'S BIGFOOT!!!<br />
'''Goofy:''' (holding a video camera in front of him) Could you scoot back a bit, Mr. Foot? You're out of focus. }}
* [[Clawed the Legend of Sasquatch]] features a [[Noble Demon]] sasquatch.
