SUBJECT: SPACE ALIENS HANG OUT AT NEVADA BAR FILE: UFO2119

|
Rachel, Nev. - The little A'Le'Inn may not look like much, but the dusty pub
|
|
in the middle of the Nevada desert is one of the most fascinating places on
|
|
the planet - because it's the only bar on Earth where space aliens come to wet
|
|
their whistles!
|
|
|
|
Local folk who frequent the tiny tavern hardly bat an eye these days when a
|
|
visitor from some faraway solar system strolls in and plops down at a corner
|
|
table.
|
|
|
|
Some of these spacemen look pretty strange, but some of them look so much like
|
|
us you'd never know they weren't human if they didn't act so odd, says easy-
|
|
going Joe Travis, who runs the remote roadhouse with his wife Pat.
|
|
|
|
The other day one of 'em came in and sat right over there by the slot machines
|
|
for 12 hours. The entire time, he never said anything, never ate anything,
|
|
never drank anything - and never even went to the bathroom.
|
|
|
|
Then, when closing time came he just got up, walked out the door and disappea-
|
|
red. We didn't make a nickel off that guy.
|
|
|
|
But more often, the A'Le'Inn's interplanetary patrons grab a bite to eat and
|
|
something to drink before zooming off into the sunset. And they pay their tab
|
|
with crisp green bills.
|
|
|
|
I don't know where they get their money, but I'm glad they've got it, Pat Tra-
|
|
vis says. There are hardly enough real people around here to keep this place
|
|
open.
|
|
|
|
Though Earthlings are scarce, UFO experts say there are more E.T.s strolling
|
|
around this sleepy hamlet north of Las Vegas than anyplace else on Earth,
|
|
thanks to a constant stream of starship traffic in and out of nearby Nellis
|
|
Air Force Base.
|
|
|
|
Researchers swear the Pentagon is doing more than testing super sophisticated
|
|
warplanes at Nellis. They say it's also conducting tests on nine captured
|
|
alien spaceships stowed in hangars at the base - and meeting on the sly with
|
|
the occupants of countless UFOs that zip in and out of Nellis every day.
|
|
|
|
And when the top secret meetings are over, it seems, the E.T.s often head for
|
|
the Little A'Le'Inn (pronounced A-Lee-Inn) to unwind.
|
|
|
|
You never know when they're going to pop in and you never know they're going
|
|
to look like when they do, insists Pat Travis. But they pretty much keep to
|
|
themselves, and our regulars just leave them alone. This is a real friendly
|
|
place.
|
|
|
|
And the enterprising Travises, who bought the inn six years ago, keep it frie-
|
|
ndly by making sure their customers feel right at home - no matter what planet
|
|
they hail from.
|
|
|
|
Earthlings Welcome proclaims a sign outside the front door of the converted
|
|
trailer. And a few feet away, another sign invites UFO crews to come in and
|
|
quaff a few.
|
|
|
|
A wooden replica of a flying saucer sits outside the bar and a paper mache
|
|
alien's head is perched atop the jukebox. The restaurant's favorite offering
|
|
is the Alien Burger - made from unmutilated cattle - and the bar's best sell-
|
|
ing drink is a concoction called the Beam Me Up, Scotty.
|
|
|
|
But despite the frivolous trappings, those aliens snooping around Rachel are
|
|
no joke to the cowpokes, ranchhands and assorted good ol'boys who belly up
|
|
to the A'Le'Inn bar every day at dusk.
|
|
|
|
A lot of our customers have been abducted by aliens, Pat Travis says. Around
|
|
here, nobody kids them about it.
|
|
|
|
And Pat herself insists an invisible creature from another world has been her
|
|
constant companion for months.
|
|
|
|
Three psychics have told us that beings we can't see are present in this bar,
|
|
and one of them is with me all the time, she says. We call him Archilbald and
|
|
he's been a good friend.
|
|
|
|
One day recently, the unsuspecting lady was barreling down Highway 375 when
|
|
Archibald's voice sounded out loud and clear.
|
|
|
|
He told me, Pat, slow this car down! I slowed down from 65 miles an hour to 35
|
|
and suddenly there were two big black bulls in the highway right in front of
|
|
me. If he hadn't warned me, I'd have been killed for sure.
|
|
|
|
So around here nobody laughs about space aliens. One of them saved my life.
