‘Alcatraz’ Fans Trying To Break Into Prison
While the new show “Alcatraz” has only been on Fox since last week, it is already starting to get visitors to the real Alcatraz island in trouble. Some fans have been infiltrating guided tours on the real-life island to search for a top secret room – which only exists on the show. National Parks Service rep Alexandra Picavet said tourists are starting to stray from their tours and sneak into “closed areas” on the former federal prison. Picavet says many of them have confessed they’re looking for a high tech control room, described on the show as a “bat-cave underneath Alcatraz.” Picavet says they’ve now posted a sign on the island reading: “The TV show ‘Alcatraz’ is fictional, many areas it depicts are not real. Closed areas protect you, historic structures and nesting birds.”
