Good grief! I am so glad I stayed away until Monday afternoon - and I probably arrived a little too early at that. Sounds like Primm got off very easy - just some cleanup. At least no one at McDonalds got shot for serving the food too slowly.
One of the many misdeeds I heard about on TV (during the morning post-mortem call-in) was at least one incident where obviously intoxicated "patrons" jumped over the bar and beat the bartender senseless for refusing to serve them more alcohol - along with dealers who were threatened or intimidated when the house was winning.
The NBA created this out of control monster and expected LV to handle everything on their own? Now they complain that LV failed to provide an appropriate venue and they want to take their business elsewhere? I say good riddance! Let's hope ol' Oscar G. learned his lesson and keeps these types of events away from his city. I'm sure LV has permanently lost the patronage of many guests who were inadvertently visiting during that weekend and didn't know about the quagmire they walked into.
Now I have to hope and pray they don't bring the All Star game to South Florida
Travelaxe.com has a great convention schedule/calendar for Las Vegas - I think it's an excellent tool for checking on meetings and events which might be scheduled during one's planned visit and deciding whether to visit or reschedule.
