)
)
Combining all predictions, the current most likely outcome is Other including tour canceled with a probability of 39% (unchanged in last 1 day)
On October 3, 2008, the Dallas Museum of Art marked the first stop of a three-city American tour of King Tut's artifacts. The second stop was recently announced as a nine-month stay at San Francisco's M.H. de Young Memorial Museum. This latest tour is an encore of a recent tour, which had stops in Los Angeles, Fort Lauderdale, Chicago and Philadelphia.
The exhibits feature more than 130 artifacts. Due to high insurance rates, the gold death mask will not be seen on this tour. The mask was a feature of a 1972-1979 tour.
The suspension date is chosen as the opening of the San Francisco stop. However, it will be changed if no announcement has been made. If, by the end of the San Francisco stop, there are no further announcements, the question may settle as 'other'.
