Want a good place see Area 51? Well there’s a cattle ranch bordering the property that you can now buy. Really though if you wanted a prime spot to spectate this is it.

Just two years ago there was a gathering at the famous Area 51 when Matty Roberts created a Facebook event called, “Storm Area 51, They Can’t Stop All of Us”. Many people who wanted to attend either ended up going to the actual area or to the party that the event eventually turned into.
If you owned this property you could pretty much own the next event. Which we assume will happen as soon as it’s safe to start gathering again. Think of all of the themed merchandise you could sell if you wanted to!
The property is going for $4,500,000 and has a yearly property tax of $950. You could use this as a cattle ranch sure. But it would be smarter to make it a type of camping destination site so that people could bring their telescopes and binoculars and kind of just peek into the government property.
Also it’s important to note that the previous owners Steve and Glenda Medlin were able to work out a deal where they could step onto Area 51 in order to tend the cattle. They just needed to call over the radio first.
Here’s the listing if you’re interested. Even if your not it’s pretty cool to check out.
