A social media prank about raiding an Air Force-owned land in Nevada to find aliens just keeps giving.

Bud Light tweeted Wednesday that it would be the first brand to formally announce it will not be sponsoring the Area 51 raid.

Then, the company says it will offer a free beer to any alien that makes it out.

That's right, after a Facebook page went viral earlier this week, even brands are trying to cash in.

Meanwhile, the Air Force is warning for people to stay out.

More than 1 million people have signed up to attend the raid as of Thursday. 

Screw it. Free Bud Light to any alien that makes it out. https://t.co/AOWOYL3Oyp

We’d like to be the first brand to formally announce that we will not be sponsoring the Area 51 raid.

The Facebook page, Storm Area 51, They Can't Stop All of Us, is a spoof event scheduled to take place at 3 a.m. on Sept. 20.

"We will all meet up at the Area 51 Alien Center tourist attraction and coordinate our entry. If we naruto run, we can move faster than their bullets. Lets see them aliens," the Facebook page says.
