Why September 20th? I do believe it was a joke post, but why not say next Saturday night?

It sure makes the joke a lot funnier because it gives people time to plan for it and you know plenty of dumb asses are going to show up.

Maybe they get arrested immediately, or they get zapped by a death ray. Who knows? But I like that they set a date well in advance. It gives some crazy people a chance to gather and hopefully some weird shit happens.

No way people will make it inside the base, to secure.

You can drive right up to the gate. It's just a wire fence.

"Boss, I need to take the 3rd week of September off."

"Me too. Need a ride?"

Edit: That zone will be so fucking vacant come the end of September.
