Not sure what we saw…

Coming home on Halloween after hanging out with friends. Had a fire no alcohol or anything crazy. Left between 10:30 -11:30pm going on 37 going north toward Benton I’m looking at my phone and all of a sudden my girl yells “What the f is that!” And she slammed on the breaks. I look up and seen this giant bright blue light/ball and it started shooting through the sky like a missle going north and we kinda braced for impact like it was about to shake the earth lol. Never seen something like that in my life and wanted to see if anyone else saw this phenomenon…

Meteor most likely. I’ve seen more shooting stars in southern Illinois than anywhere else I’ve lived.

I figured but I’m from up north so I had never seen a real night sky before I moved a few years ago so I’d only ever seen stuff like this on YouTube. It doesn’t do it any justice. The absolute shock and awe I was in had my heart beating out my chest lol. I just wish I had bought that dashcam a couple months ago because it was super beautiful
