MAYVILLE, Wis. -- In the rolling hills of rural Dodge County, people might expect to see farm fields filled with corn and other crops, but if they look a little closer, there is something very different in one barley field.
"The holes appeared and there it was but you couldn't see what made it, but I seen it right when it happened," farm owner Arthur Rantala said.
Rantala witnessed something most people have only seen in the movies or on TV
From the safety of his work shed during a violent morning storm on the Fourth of July, he saw crop circles form
"It looked like a lake. The waves, the wind blowing, and then all of the sudden this dark hole appears, like a black hole. And then immediately, one to the right then another to the center of it," Rantala said.
Some might wonder if these circles could simply appear from some high winds or did they have any human help?
"You don't think a board could have done this?" 12 News reporter Ryan Schulteis asked Barb Rantala.
"No. How you gonna go around knock this down so flat is hasn't come up since? Cause it's broke,'" Barbara Rantala said.
"Or could it have been little green men from outer space?" Schulteis said.
"UFOs? Let them think what they do, but I saw this actually happen so my eyes know what I seen. So I know it was Mother Nature and nobody else," Arthur Rantala said.
The Rantalas told 12 News if people start to flock to these circles, they might start to charge admission.
