Fail - Area 51: Storming of secretive Nevada base to 'see aliens' fails to materialise

[lunasun]

Fears that thousands of people could storm Area 51 on Friday were unfounded, with just several dozen arriving at the secretive US military base.

Millions had responded to a Facebook post in June calling for people to raid the facility in Nevada on 20 September to "see them aliens".

Despite much anticipation surrounding the event, only around 75 people turned up at the front gate and nobody attempted to enter.

The only person to be arrested was a man caught urinating near the entrance and a woman was detained for an undisclosed reason, Associated Press reported

1. How about this,

temps in the low 30's ,most likely frost,and winds from the northwest at 20 to 40. Nothing like spending a night camping out in the desert with Ryolite and Gypsum dirt tearing you hide off.

2. You don't know that

I think at least 10k people showed up and for lack of a better term were “raptured” away by aliens.

I don’t know what was wrong with the 75 who were left behind but they obviously didn’t make the cut.

The grey overlords have forbidden me from using sarcasm tags so forgive me.

3. Yes but

On 22 Sept 2019 they reveal alien contact, only two days later
