Common Questions

Why now? Why have I only just heard of the Sconster?

The stories have floated around for a while, what’s changed is how much more we notice and share things. Trail cameras, everyone carrying a phone, social media spreading those little moments farther than before. It’s not that the Sconster just showed up. It’s that more people are paying attention.

Do I need special gear to see a Sconster?

Nope. No night-vision goggles or tracking devices required. Just bring your eyes, your curiosity, and maybe a good pair of boots if you’re wandering the woods. The rest comes down to luck and timing.

Is the Sconster real?

Depends who you ask. Some say yes, some say no, and most just smile and change the subject. Around here, we’re less worried about proof and more interested in keeping the legend alive.

We like a little fun, but the site and products are completely real. And just to prove it, here’s a real 5% off coupon code for your whole order in the shop: REAL5.

Can I buy merch even if I’ve never seen one?

Absolutely. You do not need a sighting to snag some gear. Think of it as celebrating Wisconsin’s quirks and stories whether you’ve spotted the Sconster or just enjoy a good local legend.

Can I contribute my own stories, sketches, or sightings?

Yes. We love seeing what you’ve got. Photos, drawings, memories, or tall tales, it all fits. Every submission helps keep the story alive and might even appear on our sightings map. Report sightings here.

Is this like a Wisconsin Bigfoot?

Some people make that comparison, but so far the Sconster seems different. We’re still figuring it out as more stories and sightings come in.

Will people think I’m exaggerating if I say I saw one?

Only if your story is taller than your neighbor’s fish tale. Around here, people enjoy a good tale. The Sconster is as much about sharing the story as spotting it.

Is this just an elaborate excuse to sell t-shirts?

We will admit the merch is fun, but the Sconster is the real draw. It’s about Wisconsin stories, local curiosity, and a little adventure. To make it even more meaningful, a portion of every order goes to organizations supporting Wisconsin state parks, trails, and natural areas.
