Memorable marchers in the showcase parade of all things extraterrestrial-like at McMinnville Oregon's, annual McMenamins UFO Festival

Founded in 1999, this three-day event began at the historic McMenamins Hotel in memory of the celebrated 1950 "Trent sighting" and photographs of a purported flying saucer at a nearby farm. Skeptics have concluded that that this was a hoax, whose UFO was a model suspended from power lines.
