Been Visiting For Years, Finally Joined ! (Introduction)

Hi Fellow ATS Members,

Excited to finally join you guys. As the title states, I have been a big fan of ATS for years but never joined. A while back when I was still living in FL, me, my father, and 2 friends of mine decided to go launch the fireworks that I had bought. It was the fourth of July, and unfortunately the weather was not the greatest. It was drizzling, and there was this misty overcast all night long. We had been launching fireworks for about an hour or so, drinking beers, while trying to hurry up so we could get back indoors. That is when I heard my father say "WTF is that?" while pointing to the sky. We all saw 3 red glowing lights break through the mist and just hover over our heads. It was really baffling. We all stood there speechless looking at these 3 lights just hover silently. They had to be there for about 5-10 minutes when my friend Danny decided to launch a few whistlers at it. He was able to get 2 off. Nothing ! No response or movement. 5 minutes later, they just started fading into the mist and vanished. When I got home, I started searching for other experiences people had. That was how I came across ATS.

My interests are: Aviation, macroeconomics, investing, nature, gardening etc.

Glad to be here with you guys and gals, shoot me any questions you have.

Welcome to ATS!

Just curious, approx how far above your heads were the lights, and did you experience any physical sensations along with them?

a reply to: HanSolo31

Happy ats birthday. Welcome to you

a reply to: Illumimasontruth

Approximately 1500'-2000' AGL. No physical sensations at all, besides utter shock and excitement. I never believed in UFO's and thought that most of the sightings reported were just lies. So needless to say, this event shattered some of my core beliefs and forced me to reassess many of my values.

Hello and welcome!
Pick out your tinfoil hat at the entry door.

Thank you.

Sounds like quite the experience! I believe most of this stuff is military related but I definitely do not rule out other possibilities.

'You think your fireworks are impressive human?'
You know the more I read about aliens the more I'm convinced they're dicks that are just constant one-uppers.

Welcome to the site. I was coming here on occasion for many years before I joined. I learned long ago that this site would show the real news before MSM would.

a reply to: rickymouse

Exactly. I find myself relying much less on MSM and to be honest I find out about events on ATS way before the media even mentions anything.

a reply to: HanSolo31

Welcome

What year was your sighting? I had a very similar sighting about 4-5 years ago a few weeks before the 4th of July, but in the UK. It lasted nearly two hours.

Anyways welcome!
Hopefully I'll see you around the boards sometime

Glad to have you here. My quest for the truth is what brought me to ATS. Enjoy the ride!
