A Wisconsin family who had been living in their home for over a decade, knew the whole time that there was a hidden metal door in the ground in the backyard, but somehow were never tempted to open it and see what was inside or where it led to. Until one day, after all these years, they decided to crack open the metal hatch and discover the mystery behind the door.
The Zwick family were stunned to find out that this was the entrance to a Cold War-era fallout shelter buried right there, in their backyard. A ladder led them down into a bunker, which was a treasure trove, chock full of interesting items from the past.

How long would you have waited before opening that door?

I would have had that baby open shortly after I bought the place and would have brought it up to current standards ages ago.
These days someone is more likely to turn it into a secret marijuana grow......

It turns out that this story is over a year old.

Didn't want to mention that - knew I had read it a while back, but couldn't remember the site.
