I was at the Four Queens playing for strikes when the machine stopped on an empty cylinder. They took strikes out of other tubes and evened all the tubes again moving red caps to the top. They said a fill took 240 and they couldn't get them all in until all tubes were low.

I have met Eric at the Hard Rock and without a doubt he is the friendliest casino shift manager out there. The Hard Rock loads strikes in the same tubes. If you get an empty tube that had Pink Tacos in it you will receive the same when they fill. The tubes correspond to the strike picture at the top of the tube.
