What caused the massive crop circles on a field at Greg Geib’s Washington state wheat farm?
“We had aliens attack us … you know, I guess,” he told KHQ-TV [3].
Greg’s wife Cindy thinks “it would be kind of cool if it really were aliens,” but doesn’t seem to think it’s likely.
The elaborate designs were pressed into the Geibs’ fields near Wilbur, Wash., last week. Whoever – or whatever – made them strikes area fields every year or two, according to local farmers.
“I guess this year it was our turn,” Cindy Geib said.
Though some people believe that crop circles are the work of visiting extraterrestrials, the phenomenon began in the 1970s when admitted hoaxers Doug Bower and Dave Chorley started carving the elaborate designs into British farmers’ fields.
