There are many reasons why football matches have stopped over the years, but this one might be the wildest. In 1954, Ten-thousand fans were watching in the concrete bowl of the Stadio Artemi Franchi. Suddenly everyone, even the players, were transfixed on cigar shaped aircrafts in the sky raining down silver, glittery material. To this day, witnesses swear it was certainly an extraterrestrial entity. Backing up their argument, UFOs were reportedly seen all across the surrounding areas of Florence and Tuscany. Was it really aliens or something even weirder? Tune in and find out if We Were Had!

In July 1518, residents of the city of Strasbourg were struck by a sudden and seemingly uncontrollable urge to dance. The hysteria kicked off when a woman known as Frau Troffea stepped into the street and began to silently twist, twirl and shake. By August, the dancing epidemic had claimed as many as 400 victims. In a surprise twist, the town government thought it was a good idea to fight the disease by building a stage and bringing in professional dancers. With many of the afflicted passing out and even dying, the big mystery is what the fvck caused it. The leading guess at the time was "hot blood" and today we really don't have much else to go off of.

Kurt Cobain was heralded as a spokesman of Generation X and is considered one of the most influential musicians in the history of alternative rock. His band, NIrvana, found global success defining a genre of music known as grunge. During the last years of his life, Cobain struggled with heroin addiction, depression, and a tumultuous relationship with his wife, Courtney Love. Famously a member of the tragic "27 Club," on April 8, 1994, Cobain was found dead at his home in Seattle at the age of 27. While police ruled it as a suicide, there have long been many conspiracies about what really happened and why. According to a spokesperson for the Seattle Police Department, the department receives at least one weekly request to reopen the investigation. Tune in and find out if We Were Had!

Is there really $90 Million worth of gold, silver and jewels buried somewhere in Bedford County, Virginia? This is the story of the three ciphertexts originating from an 1885 pamphlet called The Beale Papers, detailing treasure being buried by a man named Thomas J. Beale in a secret location in about 1820. Amateur treasure hunters, mathematicians, and even the NSA have been trying (and failing) to crack these codes ever since.

We Were Had!  This week we dive into a controversial case from the past, the infamous case of Dr. Crippen.  In 1893, Hawley Harvey Crippen married his second wife, Cora Turner, in Jersey City, America. Seven years later, in 1900, they moved to London.  A few years later Hawley Crippen began falling for another woman and after a dinner party one night his wife Cora disappeared without a trace.  After making an attempted get away with his new girl in disguise and after finding a limbless body in his basement, there is actually still some debate on whether he killed his first wife or not.  Was this body from another murder?  Was he framed?
