The last I checked, most of the entrances were somehow covered up, but I have seen videos of people 'restoring' some of the underground areas over the years so I know there has to be a way to open the entrances.
I have done a lot of exploring in my area; abandoned factories, old basements from houses that aren't there anymore, abandoned fallout shelters, mental institutions. I love the feeling of opening some old hatch, lowering a rope and climbing into the 'unknown'
When I saw how many posts there were about the DC tunnels and their connection to pizzagate, I decided that this could be where my dangerous hobby actually has the potential to help someone.
I have been arrested for trespassing and such before (an abandoned mental facility in New Jersey) and I am always very calm and complacent, and I believe that if I were caught in the DC underground by an authority figure they would see my prior arrests as more proof that I'm just some explorer/thrill seeker.
I want to see what's down there, I want to take some measurements, pictures and such, maybe even do some physical digging.
I want to see what is underneath comet ping pong for myself, and share the experience with you.
What are your thoughts? Anyone have experiences trying to get into the underground?

Bring a firearm, atleast 2 friends also with firearms, means to cut through locks or possibly even a portable band saw. It's probably not possible but if you can get cell reception or somehow boost reception to receive it down there do it and ALWAYS BE FILMING. Not to something live like periscope, but with somekind of app that films and automatically saves to the cloud.

Why bring firearms? That's probably very ill advised.

Yeah I'm thinking worst case scenario you walk in on powerful rich people doing fucked up shit perfectly capable of "suiciding" you... I am encouraging trespassing here so it's probably more likely to just get arrested and the guns would complicate that. All of you should carry mace definitely. And I already mentioned always be filming preferably in a way that will be preserved in the cloud but in addition to that DEFINITELY tell someone you can trust what you're doing, a time to expect to hear back from you, and the information they need to access whatever cloud storage you use. Maybe consider small cameras you can leave to run over night on the off chance you see someone else show you how to access something by accident

No, don't bring a firearm. If you get caught by police, you'll have your gun confiscated, and you'll be arrested. Gun laws are very strict in DC, and you need to have the gun registered, as well as a permit.
A can of bear spray would suffice, and is legal.
