Raindrops keep falling on Magoo’s head. But that doesn’t mean Magoo’s eyes will soon be turning red. Magoo.

I recall that disaster who took out a family on Revere Beach Blvd was a pipe fitter who worked at the casino. Looks like the sprinkler system needed better pipe fitting.

Or, maybe, a new water feature?

It's a flush, a royal flush.

The damage caused by this pipe burst. $$$$$$$$$$$$. Encore needs to scale down its plans, maybe even sell a few lots. That 800-ft ped bridge fund was probably gutted by Saturday. Still, it may be a blessing in disguise. A CR platform linking Encore directly with Salem/PEM and TD Garden is a better fit for the resort.

Man, I wish I saw this before I drove to the Encore. Just parked a few minutes ago and got turned away at the poker room entrance.

Ha! I just got home and read that they reopened the poker room at 7:30. Oh well.

Maybe ... just a little

Looks like the fire sprinklers.

Wait. What happens to the games? What happens to potential winnings in the middle of a game when the water came tumblin' down? Never mind the comments. Just show me the law.

Charlestown Eleven at work!

It's so close to the harbor that this was bound to happen...

Is an article in The Globe by Shirley Leung, a day before the water works, praising the solid infrastructure at the casino and how all of Boston could have been built this way if we had embraced the Olympics...

And “commentary” by Jim Braude beating up Encore management for gross profit taking while personally cashing a $400k per year check from “public” broadcasting.

Several million dollars vanished without a trace. The only evidence left behind a single turkey feather....
