Harrah's, Harveys, and the Horizon casinos in South Lake Tahoe all suffered flooding yesterday following below-zero temps on the weekend that froze sprinkler pipes and caused them to burst. According to the AP, thousands of gallons of water dumped into Harrah's, causing the elevators to break.

Temperatures hit 11 below zero on Sunday.

All three casinos, along with the casino at the MontBleu Resort, suffered damage and are currently closed — and right before MLK weekend! We'd have to assume they will hurry their asses off to reopen and continue to take people's money by Friday, but it remains uncertain.

In the case of the MontBleu, an antifreeze system reportedly failed, and the pipes froze anyway.
