yep I got stuck in the elevator at the Holiday Inn in cleveland in 2002 too - but at least they could pry the door open and get us out with a little step ladder that seems to be stored just a little too conviently close by

last friday at the Embassy suites the elevator went up to where the 2nd floor would be, and it stopped there - so there was no door to pry open and let them out cause there is no second floor

they had to wait for the Otis Man (dressed all in green like a superhero) to arrive and force the elevator to overide its safety shutoffs.

BTW - I wasnt stuck in there with the students, I playing crossing guard on the street.
