I dated a girl in the early 2000s from Bloomer Wisconsin. The first time I visited her parents house she told me of the visitors. Basically it was a hovering craft that killed some grass.

Ok. If you were there it's a big deal. But for anyone else it's a mediocre X-Files episode.

What was really strange was that she claimed that government types showed up the next day and installed a "covert" detection system in what looked like an antique clock. Which was connected to a cat 5 cable. I saw the connection that was left. A farmer in 2001 would never have had that connection. At least not her family. Her parents came home when she was showing me the cable connection. Her parents were upset. My impression was that her parents didn't want to be labeled as crazy. It rang true.
