Monte Carlo on fire!
 
Looks like the hotel will shut down and guests moved to other hotels. No one hurt. Where will Lance Burton go?

I saw some photos and footage on the klas-tv site. Couldn't find any web cams that were pointed in that direction.
I'm wondering why the fire sprinklers didn't control the fire.
BTW, I saw LB at his original show at the Hacienda.

Looks like the fire was on the roof and they said there were workmen up there.

The fire is over and the only real damage is to the exterior - it was a styrofoam-type material used in decorating the exterior of the hotel, which is why it burned so quickly. But there were no injuries and the flames are all out. The firefighters are inspecting room-to-room to make sure there are no hot spots inside the hotel.

Who cares! Where do WE go gambling, this is the main concern!

Hi Faina - sorry it took so long - I didn't log on all weekend - hope all is well with you. And in case you haven't heard - Lance Burton's closing down his show anyway, but the fire has nothing to do with that. Take care.
