Roswell's 60th Anniversary UFO Festival


It's what the place is known for, right? Aliens? UFO's? Area 51? The big cover-up? So, as responsible, patriotic Roswellians (and Americans for that matter!), how could we possibly stand by and not participate and see what we could uncover as the ET's descended upon our new home? Disregarding any risk of an uncomfortable probe, we felt it was our duty as residents of our galaxy.

The best part was the Alien Costume Contest. We documented the whole thing here. To the left is "Trinket," the alien dog who won in the "Non-Human" category. In the collection of pictures, you'll see Dean Haglund, the contest's MC. You may (or not) remember him from the X-Files. His running commentary oscillated between wildly unfunny, and inappropriate for the family audience - sometimes killing 2 birds with one stone.


Seen here, and of particular interest is a trio of orange aliens who's orange astro-gastrointestinal processes were part of the show.

Their incontinence went over quite well with the audience and eventually won them the blue ribbon - Best Over All Alien!
