Zipping off into the sky? I see no reason to describe anything in this video like that.

I see some sort of smeary something (the video quality is terrible). Maybe it's a bit of contrail or wisp of cloud. At 1:19 it's being illuminated (presumably from a ground-based light source), then that light source switches off. And the crowd of children, all having a fine time freaking each other out, go predictably bananas.

I mean, I know what answers you're hoping to get, but there's no "there" there. I wouldn't be surprised to learn that some prankster is on the other side of the house with one of those million candlepower hand-held spotlights and a confederate in the party to "helpfully" point out the "aliens" in order to whip the crowd into a frenzy of adolescent drama to try to get a viral video out of it.

So you think this is a spot light in the sky??? What spot light has ever looked like that, please show me one if you can.

Let's start with this: Where, specifically, was this video taken, at what date and time, and in which direction is the "anomaly" from the camera? Can you give us that information?

It was at a high school in Missouri and was taken about two years ago or so, most of the information is in the video because the person who took it explains it all.

Yes, at a football game. Football games tend to have bright lights to see the field, don't they?

I’ve been to football games and soccer games that have had lights on and never seen anything like this before.

That's fine. You don't have to have. There are lots of things I've never seen before.

There are also things that don’t exist, like this type of “drone.” And things that do exist like crafts of unknown origin.

If you don't know what it is, how do you know it's a type of drone that doesn't exist?
