Talking Little Green Men Festival

Little Green Men Festival

I couldn't make this up if I tried!

I realize this will be a little bit far for most folks on this forum, but just in case any are traveling this way...

If you want an agenda, you can go to the site and scroll to the bottom.
Here are the highlights:

50TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE INVASION OF “THE LITTLE GREEN MEN OF KELLY” TO BE FOCUS OF FESTIVAL AND SYMPOSIUM IN HOPKINSVILLE AUGUST 19-21

HOPKINSVILLE, KY ---

The 50th anniversary of one of the most famous close encounters of the third kind in the history of Unidentified Flying Objects (UFOs) will be celebrated in Hopkinsville August 19-21.


On Aug. 21, 1955, members of the Cecil "Lucky" Sutton family on the Old
Madisonville Road at the edge of Kelly, a rural community 8-miles
northwest of Hopkinsville, said 12 little men dressed in silver suits
landed in a spaceship. The Sutton Family engaged them in a battle for
several hours. What resulted is one of the most perplexing and mysterious
UFO incidents on record.


“Our festival is for the serious, the curious and people who just want to
have loads of fun,” said Cheryl Cook, Executive Director of the
Hopkinsville-Christian County Convention & Visitor’s Bureau.


The festival will take place at a variety of locations in the Hopkinsville
and Christian County community located in western Kentucky near Fort
Campbell, Home of the 101st Airborne Division (Air Assault), although most
events are scheduled for the Conference and Convention Center on Lovers
Lane just off U.S. Highway 41-A south of Hopkinsville.


Detailed agenda follows.

I'm guessing copious amounts of budweiser were involved during that "gun battle"
