Yeah I thought this would be the best time for this.

Before calling 911, you should always ask someone if the object you’re looking at is the moon or a UFO.

At least he didn’t get lost in an apple orchard.

Honest mistake. Could happen to anyone.

I once had the fight of my life fending off an alien interloper who broke into the bedroom to get some kind of fluid samples.

When I awoke it turned out just to be a “rogue pillow”.

OR WAS IT ?!?! (cue spooky music)

I See the Moon

This is as funny as the woman in Australia who claimed the UFO that ran her off the road was shaped like a Ford station wagon, except for the multicolored flames coming out of it.

"999 caller mistakes moon for UFO"

A Herman Cain caller?

Picture this: You're in a car riding along a country road at night. The sky is clear; the stars are twinkling. The silhouettes of moonlit trees glide by the side window. Flash! A blue-white light beams through a gap in the forest. Flash! It happens again. And again, and again. It's following you.

In the movies, this is when the spaceship lands. A door opens. Eerie-green lights flood the roadside. Something alien steps out ... and you have a Close Encounter. Time to dial 9-1-1!

Relax. It's only Venus, the second planet from the Sun.

Back in the day... newspapers needed filler items to fill a half inch or so of column space at the end of a story. The material generally fell into one of two categories: Busses running off of mountain roads in some third world hellhole and “ain’t them British crazy” items. This falls into the latter class.
