I was pretty much stunned by the numbers like everyone else. I could not believe that with just a small percentage of those gaming devices in play that there was that kind of resiliency. I think that's spurring everyone on. A lot of people didn't think the business was going to be there for a three-year period.

We're waiting to see the final architectural plans for Biloxi and zoning/building requirements. In keeping with suggestions from (Mississippi Renewal Forum) planners to preserve the water view, we're initially thinking of low-rise parking with hotels and condominiums on top and a walkway or tram to the other side.

I wish Treasure Bay, its employees, vendors and customers the very best. My heart will always be with them and Treasure Bay. While there is never a good time to leave a company, I believe Treasure Bay has a very bright future with a strong and loyal management team and employment base in place.

Everyone thinks Treasure Bay had no insurance. We had no insurance on our vessel, but we had insurance on the fort, the hotel, the warehouse and vehicles. Everything we had insured, other than the vessel and the gaming equipment.

This one looked pretty real. The barrel had an actual hole in it.

This is a pretty good team and they have a good idea about how to play. Also, when you have a guy like Tyler pitching, it just makes the job that much easier.
