Item 11.  Temporary Suspension of Trading Under Registrant’s Employee Benefit Plans.

Currently the Recordkeeper for the Mandalay Resort Group Employees’ Profit Sharing and Investment Plan (the “Plan”) is Mellon HR Solutions and the Trustee is Wells Fargo Retirement Plan Services (“Wells Fargo”).  In order to consolidate to one service provider, Mandalay Resort Group (the “Company”) has engaged Wells Fargo to administer both the Recordkeeping and Trustee functions for the Plan.  To insure an accurate transfer of prior Plan records, participants will be prohibited from initiating investment elections or investment transfers within the Plan during the period beginning at 1:00 PM Pacific Time on October 28, 2003 and ending during the week ending November 22, 2003 (the “Blackout Period”).  The Company’s Common Stock, $.01-2/3 par value, will be subject to the Blackout Period.

During the Blackout Period, the Plan’s participants will be unable to access their Plan accounts, direct or diversify the assets held in their Plan accounts, change their deferral rate (if applicable), or request any type of distribution.

The name, address and telephone number of the person designated by the Company to respond to inquiries about the Blackout Period (the “Contact Person”) are as follows:

Les Martin
Vice President and Chief Accounting Officer
Mandalay Resort Group
3950 Las Vegas Blvd. South
Las Vegas, NV  89119
(702) 632-6820

By calling the Contact Person at the telephone number listed above or by writing to him at the address listed above, (i) a director or an executive officer of the Company may obtain, without charge, information as to whether the Blackout Period has ended, and (ii) during the Blackout Period and for a period of two years after the ending date of the Blackout Period, a security holder or other interested person may obtain, without charge, the actual beginning and ending dates of the Blackout Period.

The Company received the notice relating to the Blackout Period required by Section 101(i)(2)(E) of the Employment Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 on September 8, 2003.
