According to a Pennsylvania man, "alien" entities spoke with him through "electronic voice phenomena" (EVP) and visual patterns that he claims show up in spectrogram-generated images, helping him win the lottery three times.

We'll have to trust Gary Arnold's word for the rest because the fact that he actually win the lotto at least twice is verifiable—possibly one of the few things in this story that is. He won $17,500 in the Pick 4 draw of the Pennsylvania Lottery in 2022, then two years later he won an additional $27,500.

Arnold said last year that the enigmatic entities had instructed him to use numbers from a spectrogram to play Powerball. Unfortunately, the aliens were playing tricks on him; he only received a few hundred bucks, falling two numbers short of the multimillion-dollar jackpot.

 

"The Intangibles" Reach Out

When the entities he likes to refer to as "the Intangibles" first made contact with him in 2017, Arnold says he was a professor at the University of Lincoln in Oxford Township—more on that later. He claims that he heard an odd sound in his right ear as he was seated in the university library.

Arnold held a cheap cell phone with a voice recorder up to his ear in an attempt to capture the sound.

“Upon playback, I thought I was going to hear this maybe squelch or frequency because I couldn’t figure it out,” Arnold told CBS 21 News. “But instead, I hear a whisper, and the whisper says my name.”

Since then, Arnold has been talking to the creatures with great enthusiasm. He posts recordings of these interactions to his personal website because he is aware that people may be dubious of his claims. He claims that "forensic experts" examined the voice and verified that it "was not made by human vocal cords."

The CIA was contacted by Casino.org for comment, but as of the time of writing, no response had been received.

Arnold typically receives lottery picks through spectrograms, which are visual depictions of the noises on his computer that are converted into numbers.

On one occasion, though, the creatures used his pet pigeon, Sherbertz, as an even odd medium to convey their message.

Arnold discovered the creatures were using an EVP to communicate lottery numbers through the bird when he watched a replay of a video he had created of Sherbertz. The figures? One, one, one, one. Arnold's second Pick 4 victory occurred on this occasion.

“You can’t make this stuff up!” he marveled, inaccurately.

 

Made-Up Content?

Speaking of which, no publicly accessible documents connect Arnold to Lincoln as a faculty member, therefore Casino.org has been unable to confirm his assertion that he was a professor there in 2017 or ever.

He describes the identical interaction with the voices in a 2020 piece published in The Chester County Press, but neither a professorship nor a university library are mentioned.

At the time of writing, Casino.org had contacted Lincoln University for clarification, but had not heard back.
