The town is not happy!
Storm Area 51's 'Alienstock' Festival Looks Like It's Going to Be a Disaster
“With the social media attention this event is getting we want to clarify a few points for those not familiar with this area. Other than the Little A'Le'Inn, a small bar/restaurant/motel there are no services in Rachel. There is
no gas and no store,” the town’s website states, “The Inn is booked for that weekend. If you plan on attending the event you must be experienced in camping, hiking and surviving in a harsh desert environment and have a vehicle in good shape. You must be prepared to be completely on your own for food, water, gas etc.”
While most alien enthusiasts were worried about getting shot at by military personnel at Area 51, the residents of Rachel may be the bigger threat. With bolded red letters in all caps, the website reads:
“WARNING: A dubious group claiming a connection to chaotic events like Burning Man and the Las Vegas Electric Music Festival has taken over this event. They threaten to ‘take over Rachel’ and claim that the residents are ‘on board,” the town’s website notes. “The residents were
not asked and are
not on board and will certainly
not allow their town to be taken over. Law enforcement will be overwhelmed and local residents will step up to protect their property. This is not a good time to visit and experience Rachel.”
