Aaron Rodgers Amuses Fan With an Intriguing UFO Story

Aaron Rodgers is well-known for his inclination toward conspiracy theories. Apparently, the Jets QB has experienced a fascinating encounter with a UFO that has even kept him awake at night. He explained the whole scenario in great detail, saying,

“So it’s 2005, I was getting ready for the draft, and I was out in New York (with college friend and teammate) Steve Levy. We had this great dinner at his house in Jersey, I was making my way to bed — I had like a 5 a.m. wakeup — and as I was getting down to bed, I heard this alarm in the distance going off. And it just didn’t seem, like, normal (and) I heard some rustling downstairs.

As per Rodgers, they were taken aback when they heard an alarm in the distance. The NFL icon claims to have witnessed a “tremendously large object moving through the sky.” He describes it as a scene resembling the movie ‘Independence Day,’ with massive objects soaring through the atmosphere. Apparently, in Rodgers’ rendition, fighter jets appeared to be chasing the mysterious object. Frightened by the experience which kept him up that night, Rodgers said,

“We just stood there in disbelief. That got me into researching more about UFOs. … Whatever the hell it was, I don’t know. But it was definitely unidentified, it was definitely flying, and it was definitely a large object.”

Apparently, this isn’t the first time Rodgers has shared this story. He initially revealed it on The Pat McAfee Show, sparking conversations about UFOs.
