Roswell UFO Festival

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the take-us-to-your-beer-tent dept.

jmcharry writes "From the Washington Post: 'Attention, all aliens. Come on down. Because, seriously, this is your crowd. About 50,000 of your closest admirers are expected this weekend for the Roswell UFO Festival, celebrating the 60th anniversary of the nearby crash landing of a flying saucer — and, naturally, the ensuing government cover-up.'"

  1. Seriously, aliens, stay away. by gardyloo · · Score: 3, Funny

    If I were an alien, landing in the midst of 50,000 "worshippers" in a town of 45,000 people in SE New Mexico would NOT be my first choice. Actually, that goes for just about everyone, alien to the planet or not. Unless, of course, my menu normally consisted of nutjobs in RVs and on motorcycles.
