Burning Man, the festival beloved by Silicon Valley’s elite, is at risk of quenched by Tropical Storm Hilary.
Nevada’s Black Rock Desert, where the event takes place each year, closed its gate due to flooding caused by the rains of Tropical Storm Hilary, The San Francisco Standard reported.
Burning Man is an amazing event if you’re into that sort of thing. Some people spend years building stuff for the celebration. I know a guy who spent over a year modifying a golf cart to look like the time machine from the HG Wells book. All of his work was done in wrought iron. Then he spent the week driving around in his time machine, while smoking the biggest attached bong you’ve ever seen.
