Well, you asked, so here goes. In fall of 1974 I was a college freshman, living in the dorm. In Tennessee at that time we had what we called "field parties." Alcohol was illegal on campus, though the legal drinking age was 18 (It had been lowered to 17 during the Vietnam war for Tennessee, but that only lasted a year--- so I've been able to drink legally since age 17! I don't particularly like to drink, BTW, though I do a little.) Anyway, about 20 of us piled into cars and headed for the country. We found an open field back in the river bottom . One car had speakers that we could set up on the back, and the party started. In spirit of full disclosure, there was some weed smoking, too.
Around midnight, there was a pause in the music. One of the girls pointed to the woods and said, "What the h___ is that?" There was a blue-white glow coming out of the woods, like BRIGHT. While we watched, this big glowing ball floated up above the trees and then out into the other end of the field we were in. It was pretty well spherical, but sort of squashed top to bottom. It floated out towards us and stopped. It hovered for maybe a minute. The whole time it was pulsing with light. Then it took off, upward, on an angle a little off vertical. It dwindled down tp a pinprick and disappeared in about five seconds, all in absolute silence. We got our stuff together and got out of there. I'd call that a UFO sighting.
