An Underground Bunker at the Denver International Airport Is a Sanctuary for Billionaires, Lizard People, and Aliens

What do you get when you build a funky-looking airport—with a runway that some say looks like a swastika—that has 7,000-foot-long tunnels? A whole lot of conspiracy theories, including one that says the airport is controlled by the Freemasons because of a dedication plaque. There are too many theories about the Denver International Airport to get into here, so we’ve decided to focus on the weirdest one.

As told by the Denver Post, contractors who worked on the airport purportedly saw evidence of bunker entrances and underground tunnels during construction. The airport went over budget and opened more than a year later than it was supposed to, which led some to believe that builders had in fact been working on something else: bunkers for billionaires and the political elite in case of an apocalypse. Oh, and there have also been reports of lizard people and aliens that live in these bunkers. Obviously.

The truth is, about 1,000 people work underneath the airport every day carrying luggage to different ticket counters, planes and baggage claim areas. The Denver Post, which was given a tour of the tunnels by airport staff, says all plumbing and electrical infrastructure appears to end at the lowest level of the airport’s underground area. As far the aliens and lizard people, there is at least one hand-drawn alien image on airport walls. Workers have also been known to put lizard masks on as pranks.
