I haven't been an engineer for, oh, close to two years now. I am now in the world of the self employed, fly by the seat of your pants and hope for the best etc. Sometimes I'd kinda like to be somewhere, stuck in my van, again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ulitzer95 2,921 Posted January 14 A quick Google suggests that the tiger sanctuary at the Mirage hotel in Vegas is still there? I visited about 15 years ago, but surely this isn't sustainable in the future given the advances in efforts to shut them all down by the likes of Carole Baskin et al. I agree that a tiger's place is in the wild, though there are many more tigers in captivity in the U.S. alone than there are in the wild across the entire world, and conserving those wild populations is becoming challenging. Tigers are still hunted sadly. Finding a solution is tricky, but the days of Siegfried & Roy/traveling circuses that use tigers in live entertainment are pretty much gone.

Death Impends 4,060 Posted January 14 Interestingly, he beats out Captain Tom to become the first ever "indirect covid" DDP hit, ie someone who didn't die of covid but was only picked because of it. Because Roy died of covid and Siegfried was a unique for a "surviving halves of famous pairs" theme team. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Charles De Gaulle 120 Posted January 14 I just hope that where ever Siegfried and Roy may be that there are endless Tigers there and not a single thing they do will be able to calm them. That is all. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That is all. Both still in Vegas, naturally - Siggy on a slab for now, while Roy's presumably still hanging out in an urn in his chum's bedroom. I wouldn't be surprised if they both get shipped off to the Secret Garden at the Mirage now, so your wish may come true. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I take the implication here is they were slightly more than 'professional partners'? Oh just realise they were a couple but split in 1998, seems weird to keep your exes ashes.
