With or without aliens, those living near Area 51 are bracing for an other worldly onslaught next month.
The highly-classified, remote portion of Edwards Air Force Base is on guard for tens of thousands of extraterrestrial fans to arrive in September. But the surrounding area, which has to host the event, is so afraid that"Alienstock" will overwhelm its resources that it has already prepared to preemptively declare a state of emergency.
"We're going to declare an emergency so we can get ahead of it," Higbee said."So we don’t get in the middle of the emergency and you don’t have your medical evacuation team, the sheriff is going to have to deputize a lot more law enforcement."Anywhere from 10,000 to 30,000 people are expected to descend upon Lincoln County -- whose population is only 5,000 -- from Sept. 20 to 22, for"Alienstock," Higbee said.
The Little A'Le'Inn is the venue for"Alienstock," and West said she is expecting 800 to 1,000 people on her property. She has 10 hotel rooms which were fully booked within two days of the Facebook event's posting which can accommodate four to eight people each. She also has acres reserved for camping and parking.
