The Battle of Athens & Wheeling’s Forgotten Alien

World War II veterans returned home and fought a corrupt political machine during the Battle of Athens, Tennessee—and that’s only the beginning of this week’s Unsanctioned Chaos!For America 250, we revisit the incredible true story of the 1946 Battle of Athens. After years of alleged election fraud and intimidation, armed veterans surrounded the McMinn County Jail and recovered the ballot boxes using rifles, Thompson machine guns and dynamite.Then we head into the forgotten history of the Upper Ohio Valley for the story of Bashful Billy—the alleged 10-foot, gas-breathing alien reportedly spotted near Oglebay Park in Wheeling, West Virginia, just days after the famous Flatwoods Monster encounter in 1952.We also have an Ohio Man who invented a bear attack because he wanted a ride out of the woods, our completely legitimate Dick Van Dyke–William Shatner 2028 campaign, wrestling talk and the usual unscripted chaos.Subscribe and help us reach 100 subscribers!
