It isn't often that a casino will go down. We've been in places where the electricity will flutter, but every time the generators come back on and players can resume gambling.
But it happened this afternoon at Golden Nugget, where the power went out for almost two hours because of an underground cable being severed. Oddly enough, it only affected Golden Nugget and not any other business on Fremont St.
During the outage, all gambling ceased and was shut down, while most people were told to leave the casino.
