On 9 September 1991, the Today newspaper published a story entitled “The Men Who Conned The World” on its front page about Doug Bower and Dave Chorley (commonly referred to as “Doug and Dave”) of Southampton, England and their claim that they had hoaxed crop circles. Asked by the Today newspaper about a crop circle (constructed by Doug and Dave whilst being recorded), Pat Delgado reportedly stated “In no way could this be a hoax. This is without doubt the most wonderful day of my life”.
