MGM Resorts International Statement On Temporary Closure Of Las Vegas Properties (All Closed until May 1)
MGM Resorts ^ | 3-15-2020 | MGM

Posted on 03/15/2020 6:04:14 PM PDT by tcrlaf

MGM Resorts International (the "Company" or "MGM Resorts") today announced its decision to temporarily suspend operations at its Las Vegas properties until further notice, effective as of Tuesday, March 17th. Casino operations will close on Monday, March 16th, followed by hotel operations.

The following statement was released by Jim Murren, Chairman and CEO of MGM Resorts: "As the coronavirus pandemic has intensified in the United States over the past week, the people of MGM Resorts have worked to try to find a way to continue delivering high quality hospitality and entertainment experiences for our guests while keeping our employees doing the jobs they love in a safe environment. Welcoming people from around the world is what we do, and our employees have tremendous pride in their work. Despite our commitment to dedicating additional resources for cleaning and promoting good health, while making difficult decisions to close certain aspects of our operations, it is now apparent that this is a public health crisis that requires major collective action if we are to slow its progression.

Accordingly, we will close all of our Las Vegas properties as of Tuesday, March 17th, for the good of our employees, guests and communities. This is a time of uncertainty across our country and the globe and we must all do our part to curtail the spread of this virus. We will plan to reopen our resorts as soon as it safe to do so and we will continue to support our employees, guests, and communities in every way that we can during this period of closure." MGM Resorts will not be taking reservations for arrivals prior to May 1, but please watch www.mgmresorts.com for the latest information. Details on the closing procedures, timelines and other issues related to this announcement will be forthcoming.

“So where will you be volunteering. Food banks seem to be a good place..or perhap homeless since you know you are immune”

Ok, you airhead. I’m really getting sick of your replies that seem to not even remotely have anything to do with what I said.

YOU are the %#$%@$damn fool that is crying because this casino is closed. OK?

That means YOU want it open. That means YOU want people to go there and potentially spread sickness because you mentally cant deal with them NOT.

That means I should be asking YOU when YOU are going to go do any of that stuff since it IS YOU THAT IS BOO-HOOING THAT YOU CANT GO TO THE DAMN MGM RESORT!

Now are you even able to understand that simple logic, or am I going to get yet another scatterbrain post from you 30 minutes from now?

“Yes, we get that you dont seem to think closing Vegas for two weeks is a big deal”

THAT IS WHAT YOU POSTED TO ME

But you keep going on like some moron about “huuur duuuuuuur you think you are immune!!!”

You literally have no reading comprehension at all.

Look, I dont have a problem with them closing down.
I do think it is a big deal

Apparently you dont

You would rather come on threads and mock people about how you think this is no bid deal

So either volunteer and help people because you are immune..or shut up.

You wont volunteer will you???

Because you are afraid you will get the virus, get sick, be quarantined,,.maybe end up in the hospital..maybe spread it to your loved ones....maybe be on
A ventilator..maybe get a lot of medical bills..and maybe die

So volunteer or shut up

“Look, I dont have a problem with them closing down.

Apparently you dont.”

No. I dont.

People arent getting infected, or infecting others. The place can be cleaned, and MGM is going to pay their workers. Plus some people that shouldn’t be sticking their money in a slot machine will get a break from wasting their money.

....But that means I think I’m “immune” and need to volunteer at a kitchen? As you keep trying to imply.

“You would rather come on threads and mock people about how you think this is no bid deal”

You.....you just said I didn’t think it was a big deal. Now you are saying I’m mocking people that think it isnt.

You literally cannot follow a damn conversation, lady. And I think you know this too. That is why you cant shut up, and will keep replying, making you sound even more illogical.

Now watch as you do it again because you ego cant take it.

I am because it is pointless. YOu are troll that wants to mock people discussing the issues about this virus

So bottom line is

WHERE ARE YOU GOING TO VOLUNTEER?

It is very selfish of you since you think you are immune not to help out on the front line.

The entire economy is grinding to a complete halt.

Yep, the stock market reflects the economic hit.

“I am because it is pointless. “

You could not follow a conversation.

You contradicted yourself.

You finally saw it.

Now you wave the white flag and keep screaming about “volunteering” because you ended up looking like an idiot and it’s all you got left thinking screaming some weird ass question that has nothing to do with anything I said is some sort of argument. LOL!

The bottom line is you need to do better next time.

You can stop with your stupid tangent question.

It has nothing to do with my point, and you barking it 100000 times like some nag to her husband, is still not an argument, just like that retarded line of “you think you re the immunes!!!!”.

No, you can take it as you irrelevant tangent attempt when you were getting your ass handed to you is ignored.

Now go hug your cat and tell him I said hi.

btw,..ONE MORE TIME

1.I don't have a problem with Vegas Shutting down

2. It does start to scare me because the very fact that they are doing it..shows this is something big they are worried about...name the last time they EVER did it.

IF YOU CANNOT FIGURE OUT HOW BOTH OF THOSE STATEMENTS ARE CORRECT AND DONT CONTRADICT:

I DO NOT CARE

This is just as fun as the lefty chicks online that after they are made to look like fools, they cant shut up because their girly egos cant take it.
