** FILE ** Former Arizona Gov. Fife Symington grimaces as he answers questions regarding his sentence outside the federal courthouse in Phoenix in this Feb. 2, 1998, file photo. Symington trotted out an aide dressed as an alien 10 years ago to spoof the frenzy surrounding mysterious lights in the Phoenix sky. Now he says he saw the lights himself, and believed from the start that they were extraterrestrial. Now a pastry chef and business consultant, Symington said he didn't acknowledge his own encounter at first because he didn't want people to panic. The former governor, who faced fraud charges at the time, also said he didn't need the additional problems such an admission would have created. (AP Photo/Ken Levine, file)
