I wouldn't consider myself one of those kooky people who call late-night radio talk shows that focus on things like ghosts, aliens, and other "unnatural" topics. (although I do enjoy listening to those shows)

However, I'm also not one of those folks who refuse to believe that we're all alone in this giant universe of ours.

While I'm not sure that I've ever seen an actual "UFO", I do believe they exist, and I don't think they're filled with "little green people". It seems I'm not alone.

They call Montana "Big Sky Country", and that's for good reason. And according to one source, it seems there are a lot of Montanans out there seeing things other than stars in those big skies of ours.

The Action Network, which allows folks to place bets on sports and other activities, put together some research on U.S. States and UFO sightings. (Apparently, you can bet on anything, including the odds of seeing a UFO in Montana)

Oh, and UFO sightings aren't new in Montana; in fact, there have been a couple of famous sightings over the years, including one near Great Falls that allegedly shut down the nuclear missile silos for a short period.

So, what are the odds that you will see a UFO flying over the Treasure State?

According to the data, Montana ranks 2nd in the nation when it comes to the best places to see a UFO. Oh, and in case you're wondering who beat us out, that would be the state of Vermont.

The breakdown is as follows:

  • UFO Sightings Per 100,000 - 95.3
  • 1 In X Odds - 1049

It should be noted that we're right on the heels of Vermont. I mean, I feel like if just a couple of more folks who might be afraid of ridicule would come forward, we could overtake that number one spot. I mean, we're talking about minimal effort here.
