I don't know why this always happens to my mom, but she seem to have the worst of luck at places like this. Unfortunate situations always occur to her when she is just minding her own business. She was just standing near the pool and watching the dolphins play when two of the male dolphins began to fight. The fight was so violent that both dolphins landed on the cement and began aggressively hitting there tails at each other. This was less than 2 feet away from my mom. My mom and another woman ran for their lives. Both dolphins were cut and bloody due to the severe fight, and flopped back into the water to continue the fight. The staff didn't say sorry and just explained to her and the other woman that male dolphins fight over territory. Of course it ruined my mom's trip. She came here to relax because the night before she got a phone call that informed her that her Dad had died. I should have brought her to the Mandalay Bay Shark thing.
The day just got worse at the Tiger and Lion exhibit. One of the tigers decided to take a piss towards the crowd of people watching. I had no clue that a tiger could piss that far of a distance. The people all ran backwards, but thought it was funny. They were laughing because it missed them, but I bet if it actually hit them they would be pissed off as hell.
So, I guess this place ain't 100% safe. So my advice is to hold onto your young children, and don't let them get too close to the dolphin tanks.
If management is reading this and thinks I am exaggerating, go check out the security tape and see for yourself. I came on 2/26/2012 around 3pm.
A lot of crazy sh!t happens here btw...
