The Zanfretta UFO incident was an alleged alien encounter of Italian nightwatchman Pier Fortunato Zanfretta. On December 6, 1978, at approximately 23:30, Zanfretta was examining the villa "Casa Nostra," and upon entering the back yard saw a red, oval object with a diameter of over 33 ft. At this point, he called his supervisor, who recalled him screaming. On turning around, Zanfretta reported running into beings who were 9.8 ft tall with mottled skin as though they were fat or wearing a rumpled suit. The creatures had yellow triangular eyes, and clawed feet. He later claimed to have been abducted by the beings 11 times between 1978 and 1981. (source: Wikipedia)
With Zanfretta's (true?) story in mind, let's celebrate with an invasion of our own...
