Sightings

One of the first sightings of Chris

“	...[the Trolls] still come after me in real life, looking to snap photographs of me wherever I am away from my house if they're there at the same time; looking for some "juicy footage" they can misinterpret and misdetail in their own sick ways. They get posted on the damn Cwcki, where such "footage of the Gay Trucker will be rewarded with 'China' and/or 'Pickles'"; it really ticks me off.	”
Chris, 2010

Since his discovery on the Internet, there have been many sightings of Chris over the years. Chris is notably not fond of people taking Bigfoot style pictures of him for their "gross, uncool amusement". The amount of sightings increased greatly after his release from jail.

Chris on sightings in 2023

On 27 March 2023, Chris was released from jail, with the only explanation being "released by court order". Beginning on 1 May 2023, sightings of Chris were reported in various places around Chesterfield County, Virginia. From June onwards, Chris has been spotted in a number of locations around the state of Virginia, including Williamsburg, Lynchburg, Bedford and Ruckersville. In 2024 Chris began to be spotted in Finland and at conventions.

Most of the sightings are initially posted to the r/ChrisChanSonichu subreddit or to Twitter. Most sightings to date have involved Chris shopping. As of August, it has been confirmed that Chris once again has his own car. On several occasions, Chris was seen accompanied by Flutter, which has led to speculation that she might be his newest sweetheart.
