Las Vegas Sewer People

[Aggie]

At what point has your life gone so wrong that you live in a sewer and call it home? I bet some of you savages think this is a great idea.

LOVEBIRDS Steven and Kathryn share a well-organised home in bustling Las Vegas.
They have a neat, if compact kitchen, a furnished living area, and a bedroom complete with double bed, wardrobe and bookshelf featuring a wide selection including a Frank Sinatra biography and Spanish phrase book.

And they make their money in some of the biggest casinos in the world.

But their life is far from the ordinary.

Because, along with hundreds of others, the couple are part of a secret community living in the dark and dirty underground flood tunnels below the famous strip.

Rather than working in the bars or kitchens they "credit hustle", prowling the casinos searching the fruit machines for money or credits left by drunken gamblers.

Despite the risks from disease, highly venomous spiders and flooding washing them away, many of the tunnel people have put together elaborate camps with furniture, ornaments and shelves filled with belongings.

Is this why we don't hear much from Bobo since he moved to Vegas?

[Furtherman]

Another Aggie scoop!!

I read this too today. But look at the entrance to the flood tunnels picture in the article (won't let me link).

So what happens when these flood tunnels actually flood?

Because Las Vegas can get some nasty storms - I was there for one just last year. There's no way those make shift rooms can survive!

Too slow!!!

"It doesn't rain much in Nevada but when it does the tunnels can fill very quickly. There have been 20 drownings in the last 20 years and a lot of those were people who were living in the tunnels.

"Steve and Kathryn can say they feel like they have a home. But when it pours down three inches of rain in two hours it's clear it's not a home. It's a flood channel."

Doy! How did I miss that? My brain is sewer people.

Since you're an escaped Jersey White I'd figure you'd support the legend since it deflects attention from you.

[TripleSkeet]

I could really use a rat burger and a beer right now. When do we go hit Taco Bell?
