My responses are just from what I remember reading on a facebook page full of horrified Bigfooters.
Who is Acord? Who is "they"? Tried to make what not about Bob?
I think Russell Acord is acting as Bob's agent in the Bigfoot world.
I believe the former 'gimlin guard' has been shoved aside, they are very upset that Acord is controlling Gimlin.
They are spreading rumors that Acord is taking 80% of Gimlin's honorariums. They are starting a hashtag called #FreeBob
There is much butthurt in Bigfootry this day.
They told Bob he can't speak at the conference.
Gimlin told Acord not to film him during his lecture? Was Acord the only guy running a video camera there? Did Gimlin say "no filming" at the last minute?
No: Acord demanded that the conference attendees NOT video tape, Bog Gimlin was on board with this. There is a movie being made about Bob and the film, NOT the documentary that Acord produced last year, but an actual feature film. There is a lot of time and money being invested in the film and videos are not allowed, still photos are fine though, according to Acord and Gimlin.
Who is making this film and why do they want no-Gimlin-filming at the conference?
See above
BobG said something like, I might have gotten a little hot under the collar, and I sincerely apologize because that's not in my nature. Or something like that.
I'm not connecting all the dots. The audience might be disappointed and some may ask for full or partial refunds because the scheduled Gimlin lecture didn't happen. Is the major breach something bigger than the audience disappointment? If so, can you describe it?
I don't know if it's about missing the speech, or if it's about HOW DARE YOU DISRESPECT THE GIMLIN!!. According to Acord, Gimlin wasn't even paid when he left which is unheard of with regards to honorariums.
The organizer of the event posted that they were being rushed out by the venue to prepare for an event the next day, and since the conference had run long, they had to cut Gimlin out.
SIDENOTE:
Some have suggested that maybe they don't want Gimlin talking because he has been slipping up lately.
Saying things like, I gave Roger my death bed promise that I wouldn't say anything, and things like that.
All of his analogies and jokes are wrong now too, In the live video I saw, he said "I got slammed harder than a hurricane in a **** house door"
instead of 'slammed harder than a **** house door in a hurricane'
