I thought "TI" was a lot more fun when they were appealing to the mom & pop crowd. Now it's just lame.

I worked there a couple years ago. It seemed to me that the casino had lost its identity on the strip. They were trying and still are, to rebrand it more like a Hard Rock or Palms style and they got rid of what made them Treasure Island.

The Travel Channel didn't help at all. For over 1.5 years after the changeover and the 86ing of the Pirate show for that new "Sirens" show, they were still airing episodes of the "new stuff in vegas" and the OLD Treasure Island shows/events were all on there. People would constantly complain that what we had was not what was advertised on TV and that's false advertising...yada yada. Sorry folks, TC isn't advertising...its basically a documentary with false/out of date info.
