This week for Sofie's Choice is another pick all the way from Russia. We explore the series of events that occurred on September 27, 1989, where three children playing in a city park "saw a pink glow in the sky, then saw a deep red ball or air-borne banana land in the park. The ball circled, vanished, then reappeared minutes later and hovered. The children claimed to have seen humanoid creatures wearing bronze colored boots with a disk on the chest, along with a robot companion, exiting the object. According to the children, the alien used a ray gun to make a 16-year-old boy disappear until the object departed, only to dump the screaming teen back off again. Huge hoax of the Soviet Union's new-found freedom of speech? Or is the legend of the flying pink space banana nothing but truth? Tune in and find out!
