Most people know the year 1973 for Lynyrd Skynyrd or Pink Floyd, but down in Pascagoula, MS, a little town on the shores of the gulf formerly known as the Gulf of Mexico, something far stranger than good music was happening.On October 11 of that year, two men Charles Hickson and Calvin Parker Jr. were just enjoying a nice evening of fishing down by the river, until suddenly… alien robots with crab claws came out of nowhere and ruined it.What followed were decades of doubt, ridicule, personal struggles, and redemption.But did the two men really get abducted by aliens, did they hoax their story, or something else entirely?Join Kyle and Nate on this surprisingly deep and philosophical episode of Super Mystery Bros.
