What looks like it started as a joke has over 200k planning to attend and hundreds of thousands interested. The idea is to storm area 51 at 3 am on September 20th:
I know a contract pilot that used to fly the plain white wrapper 737's into area 51 many years ago........they had a small cafe built in for the pilots lounge. At random intervals if anything special was going on they had big curtains in front of all the windows and they would shut completely while the nefarious stuff was going on outside on the tarmac...........probably the aliens crossing................
Meh. Nobody is going to rush the base. I still think it's just going to turn into a big party (which will be cool) that may just supplant Burning Man. You really have to see where this base is located to truly appreciate the folly of trying to "storm" it. You can see the structure complex from certain hilltops outside the perimeter fence but you have o remember how deceiving distance is in the desert.
What you might perceive as just a mile or two away is actually 20 in reality. So people will get this when they actually see just how difficult it will be to try and get to the base and decide it would be much better to go hang out on the old airbase or in Rachel or both and drink beer and eat BBQ. And they will have so much fun they will do it again same time next year.
Tonapah and Rachel would be more than happy to accommodate them and take their money. And vendors will set up selling T shirts and crafty stuff and it will be a whale of a good time. Probably even have base personnel coming to hang out. I just have a feeling this is going to morph into something more fun than dangerous. Oh a few people may try and sneak onto the base and they will get pinched and tossed in jail. No biggy.
LOL. And maybe they will even provide the first 200 morons who penetrate the first obstacle free unicorn rides. You think?

Yeah, I spent many years serving active duty in the US Military. Every so often someone would approach me asking about conspiracy theory crap. I'd come up with some real doozies just to play with their heads. I'll bet this pilot you speak of is doing the same thing with you. Love it!
