Man, I thought it overflowed more recently than that. Guess I'm really old. It was when I lived in AZ because I saw it when I drove from the AZ side. You could see fish getting too close to the overflow spillway and getting caught up in the current, and over the side. They were big, too, over 2 feet.
I guess the news wasn't widely known outside of Vegas because it was easy to find a parking space on the AZ side. However, when I left, heading for Vegas, I saw a massive line of cars, with people trying to park in the tiny lots on the NV side. Traffic looked backed up halfway to Boulder City.
