A Little "Sanctuary" At BACC!!

[redrockcan]

Well, I was of course at the BACC to see MM, but a strange "Sanctuary" moment was had while leaving my hotel room. I noticed this plaque on the door across from my room. My bellman informed me that is was for NICOLA TESLA who had lived there for TEN years and then DIED in that very room. Well, HOLY HELEN MAGNUS!! I, of course said "hang on, I have

That is SO COOL!!!!!

[redrockcan]

It was!! I had a nerdy moment having to stop and take the picture.

Oh cool, you stayed at the Hotel New Yorker!

I had a similar Sanctuary reaction when seeing the large Tesla statue at Niagara Falls. ;)

[redrockcan]

Yes, it was the New Yorker. Very nice hotel and great staff. Where is that in Niagara? I'll have to check it out. I imagine near the plant?

[kosmikdawg]

The statue I'm referring to is the one on Goat Island, on the US side near the entrance to the Cave of the Winds office. There is also one in Queen Victoria Park on the Canadian side, but I've yet to see that one.

I'll have to check out the one on the Canadian side. Thanks for the info.

OMG THIS. IS. AWESOME.

I knew this would spark a "Sanctuary" geek wave and so close to the 3rd season starting. It must have been fate.

How awesome? VERY awesome!!! I love these kind of geeky photos! :-D

[redrockcan]

I know, random geeky moments and I so would have asked for that room if I'd known he lived and died there. And slept in the bed, although I'm assuming it's been changed since 1943. LOL!!

See, this is where we differ. You see 'Tesla' and think Sanctuary. I see 'Tesla' and think Warehouse 13. ;-)

I really have to check out that show. I downloaded the ep with Hogan, but haven't watched it yet. I might as well just buy the first season I guess. Tesla is fantastic, any way you can get him!
