KingRevolver Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 Talking Stick Resort had one last night because of the storm. Main and backup generators failed, too. I think the joint is still closed. LOL. Crazy. https://www.google.com/amp/s/amp.azcentral.com/amp/965952002 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sol Aristatel Posted August 12, 2018 Report Share Posted August 12, 2018 Been a crazy summer with the storms. Love it. Been in a few casinos when the power went out. Shit went down at the Rio on NYE when I was there if I remember correctly. Things get blurry after so many trips. Laughlin sucks when it comes to that shit. Fire alarms. Power outages. In the middle of the night. Last time it happened I just laid there in bed and said fuck it. I'll take my chances. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MonkeyF0cker Posted August 13, 2018 Report Share Posted August 13, 2018 It's happened while I was on the strip a few times. I'm not down there much anymore though. So not sure how frequent it happens these days but usually once or twice a year or so. There was one blackout that outlasted some of the casinos' generators and their slots were down for a day or two I believe. Haven't heard of anything like that in a long time though.

joeybagadonuts Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 Was at the shithole palms a few years ago. Power was completely out in the hall ways , elevators, and the rooms. Of course the casino didn’t miss a beat and was fully going still with full power. I ended up getting a nice upgrade bc I complained I couldn’t work in my room and had something urgent to do. (It was true but obviously I could just hotspot from my phone and still work) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yisman Posted August 26, 2018 Report Share Posted August 26, 2018 lol got to rewatch some of the same partsI was wondering why it was 2 minutes left when Kinger was signing off I'm in suspense, though, I still want to know what that SUV was doing. With regard to the talking stick, Kinger needs to break in there one night and figure out what the problem is. Start rewiring for them.
