1966 UFO Pursuit: Police Chase Flying Saucer Across 2 States!
Welcome To The Oddity Shop, Where The Bizarre is Always on Sale. This week, your curator Zach is taking you on a wild goose chase....Or should we Say Saucer Chase??
Take a ride with us through the 1960s as we relive the high-speed pursuit of an egg-shaped UFO by officers Spauer and Neff. Picture the scene: a mysterious object darting across state lines at 85 mph, leaving a trail of bewildered officers from Ohio to Pennsylvania. The fallout from this encounter was significant, altering the lives of those involved and sparking heated debates about the validity of UFO sightings.
From the iconic chase in Portage County, Ohio, to the film "Close Encounters of the Third Kind," we delve into how these encounters have shaped public perception and influenced pop culture. Along the way, we'll discuss J. Allen Hynek's shift from skeptic to believer and the challenges faced by those who dared to report the unknown.
