I thought most AT members are rich people who live somewhere warm and drive expensive imports!

So you're saying they should play the "my thread will report injuries and deaths before your thread" game?

It works for the news media, why not ATOT?
 
ah heck. Me rikey that place. Hope everyone gets out okay. At least it's later in the morning than the Grand disaster and of course safety precautions have been improved since then.

Interesting to see the affect on MGM shares.

The mods are even mightier that I ever imagined - combining two threads into one, they've created a super hybrid thread that will RULE US ALL!!!!

My whole world has been turned upside-down.
 
This is an obvious publicity stunt, I can see the future ads.

Come stay at the Monte Carlo the hottest resort on the strip.

I like how the casino has remained open despite the fire. God I love Vegas.

Casino did close.

Fire started on roof and spread down the outsideof the building to the top floors.

Combustible foam on the roofline melted down and allowed additional fires to start.

Guests moved to the MGM.

 
This gives the Monte Carlo to upgrade their POS hotel with the insurance money.............or was this intentional? Hmmmmmm.......


Formula For Success: ......Put an all-glass disco on top and fill it up with whores, comped fat mafia guys and drugged-out B/C/D celebs from LA.....starting with Robert Downey Jr, Michael Madsen and Nick Nolte.
 
Wonder if I go to expedia.com will I find a fire sale on the floor and room closest to the disaster area?

Will the casino remain open during reconstruction? Structural damage?

I do look forward to a time when we can stop building structures that use flammable materials.
