    Why? Is it because they got hacked, and folks couldn't even get in their hotel rooms.

    Yessiree. I’d think they have bigger fish to fry right now.
    Can’t even get to their website to look up where all their properties are.

    It constantly amazes we that huge corporations fall victim to hackers. Even high tech companies have difficulties with their own sites.

    Hackers are looking for the source of millions -- not to hack a minimum wage worker.

    I just got home from Vegas yesterday. But I stay far far away from the Strip. A couple more months and I'll be a local.

    Did you tip dealers like their livelihood is dependent on you?

    If nobody paid the hackers they would be out of business. Even governmental entities pay hackers. It's called bad advice from their lawyers and bean counters. Caesars paid and MGM didn't so far.

    I didn’t go last week. Are you saying I should still go?! My SO will be all too excited to know that I won’t be home……
