You can't not go to tonight's "Fall of Sauron" dance party in the Crack of Doom, but getting there and back again is really going to be a pain in the neck. Unless, of course, you're a rich dwarf who can afford a Great Eagle to fly you out. Must be nice! The rest of us filthy hobbits will have to schlep out to Mordor on an Ent, which isn't even running past Rohan, according to these "Special Event" notices posted in various subway stations. Typical.

It's tempting to just stay at home and play with your precious ring by the fire, but you know once those photos of the Sammath Naur costume party start showing up on Instagram you're going to want to kill yourself. There's food and drink at the boring book festival today, so maybe head out early if you can? Just be sure to steer clear of Torech Ungol, which of course STILL hasn't been cleared of corpses. (The MTA corpse-clearing project was supposed to be finished by spring, but it's now been pushed back to August, which is really going to stink.)

UPDATE: Um, looks like this is all a "joke" and there is no dance party at the Crack of Doom. Turns out this signage is just the latest in a series of silly fake MTA notices put up by the nerd prank collective Puck Works. Guess this means Sauron hasn't fallen after all. Please be patient.
