Strip partially shut down Thurs after sulfuric acid spill outside Wynn
« on: January 07, 2011, 05:43:01 PM »
A man slipped in a puddle of sulfuric acid after 200 gallons of it leaked as it was being delivered to Wynn (it's used in the water feature, apparently).  Part of the strip was shut down for a couple of hours on Thursday.

I guess we know what Wynn does with card counters.

I am still wondering why a casino would need sulphuric acid other then the previously mentioned possibility.

Eh, don't blame him -- he was quoting my post from Jan 7th, and apparently the link has since expired.  I posted a new link (here it is, too) about the story.

Remind me not count cards at the Wynn.  :P Adding that to the list along with the GN.
