Fire Alarms

War Story

The story

One time while setting up a smoke machine in the bottom level of a well-known San Diego resort we ended up setting off the fire alarms in the whole building and sprinklers on the bottom level. At the same time the "heads" of the hotel were all in a meeting. They came running out of their meeting room shouting and going all different directions. What we didn't know is that the Executive Suite had a very high-profile client staying in there. Everyone had to evacuate and it was a very bad situation for everyone involved. Ooops!
