What happened is that a Colonel at the base it was brought to prematurely announced that it was some kind of alien craft, and then 4 hours later they clarified, but the damage was already done.

Of course, that was in '47 and Roswell didn’t become a “thing” until '69, more as a tourism gimmick than anything else.
