Template:Infobox stronghold/Saints Row: The Third The 3 Count casino is a Stronghold Crib in Saints Row: The Third.
Description
Located in the center of the neighborhood Port Pryor, in the district of Carver Island in Steelport, 3 Count is one of the largest casinos in the city, and is featured in the mission "3 Count Beat Down". It also served as the setting of the first face-to-face confrontation between Killbane and The Protagonist, right in the midst of Killbane's press conference at the end of the mission "A Remote Chance".
3 Count was originally under control of the Luchadores (specifically Killbane), who used it as a front for their gambling operations. It later becomes a Stronghold (and Crib) under the control of the 3rd Street Saints.
History
Before the Saints takeover, the casino served as a major source of income for the Luchadores. After Killbane de-masked Angel De La Muerte in public, the Luchadores claimed the defeated wrestler's mask as their trophy and placed it in the casino's vault behind the teller cages. After spending time with the Saints, Angel regained his fighting spirit and enlisted The Protagonist's help in reclaiming his mask so that he could join in the fight against Killbane.
When the Saints assault the 3 Count Casino, Angel and The Protagonist interrogate the manager at gunpoint and then go to the vaults where Angel's mask is still being kept. Then they decide to tear the casino apart by destroying the statues of Killbane along with several slot machines in order to send the Luchadores a message. Once satisfied with their work, the Saints claim the place for their own.
