Titan Missile Complex Up for Sale

Posted by ryuzaki0 on from the most-people-think-he's-insane dept.

ckeck writes "Take a look at this, some guy in Washington State is auctioning off a 'Titan Missile Complex' on eBay. I don't know if this is a fake auction or not, but I already talked to the gentleman running the auction on the phone and plan to take a visit to the complex! This would be an awesome place to live! Check it out here." Looks like he bought it in 1999.

  4. Are Russian customers allowed there? =) by garick · · Score: 5, Funny

    I wonder, whether our Russian militaries can buy the complex to keep missiles closer to their targets? :)

    We could recreate scene's from Half-Life within the silo complex. I want to be Gordon!

    I can see it know...(cheesy guy looking up as the camera blurs/wave effect)

    "Nothing you need to worry about, Gordon. Go ahead."

    "I have just been informed that the sample is ready, Gordon. It should be coming up to you any moment now. Look to the delivery system for your specimen."

    "Standard insertion for a nonstandard specimen. Go ahead, Gordon. Slot the carrier into the analysis port."

    "Gordon! Get away from the beams!"

    Oh the fun we could have....:-)
