Area 51: We visited Amargosa Valley where a brothel, truck stop await 1.7 million people

AMARGOSA VALLEY – The phones are ringing here, the calls coming in from somewhere out there. They haven’t stopped for days.

Behind the counter of the Area 51 Alien Center, an extraterrestrial-themed souvenir and convenience store 90 miles from Las Vegas, a cashier picks up the line.

The voice on the other side wants answers about the raid of Area 51.

They're talking about the globe-grabbing Facebook event that generated 1.7 million RSVPs and forced the U.S. Military to warn anyone wanting to set foot near the impenetrable government compound that there would be consequences.

I wanna chronicle the multiple arrests...
or hopefully, drink with a whole bunch of people who ride into town, get loaded on alcohol and after sobering, ride out

5. Best snip from the article

Next door the Area 51 Alien Center is the Alien Cathouse, a “Sci-Fi themed” brothel once owned by the late Nevada pimp Dennis Hof, whose Moonlite Bunny Ranch was featured on HBO's late-night reality show "Cathouse.”

Inside the Alien Cathouse, there’s a full bar, a glass case filled with sex toys and a hallway of rooms where patrons fulfill their wildest extraterrestrial fantasies. Behind one of the doors is the “Alien Abduction and Probe Room.”
