This is a little different kind of post but thought I'd share one of the crazy rabbit holes I have went down the last year...I have only shared my info with the man who runs this true crime podcast/youtube channel who I like and he talks about it a little here in the video I will post...but kind of short version of this is:
UFC fighter Chael Sonnen claims he knows who DB Cooper was, a family friend of his parents/aunts/uncles, and Chael has talked about this in several interviews and podcasts of his own and has given details of the mans background in all of them. They went to a small school in rural Oregon in the 1950s/60s and I found that school and went from there.
I heard Chael say in an interview that DB Cooper played "five-man" football I knew instantly he misspoke and was probably talking about 6man football as there has never been five-man football (though it could also be 8man football). After hearing that I couldn’t resist trying to find out who Chael was talking about so I could make the claim "DB Cooper played 6man football." So I pooled together all Chael's details about his suspect and was able to ID the man I believe (Im 95% sure I found his man). Now I doubt the man was DB Cooper, but it was a fun little rabbit hole to go down and I learned some details about 6man football in Oregon. Think I will type of something up on this...the man is dead but Chael refuses to name him out of respect for his family so I am reluctant as well to name the guy even though Im not the one accusing him of a crime, Chael is...idk...listen to this and let me know what yall think...
