AT&T's Los Angeles weekend service disruption due to issues with more than a 1000 cell towers

Los Angeles experienced a day of dropped calls or straight out impossible connections on the AT&T network over the weekend, which had started  Saturday about 3pm and continued until the wee hours Sunday morning. AT&T was having a pre-recorded message that technicians are working on the problem, but they don't have an exact deadline when it will be fixed.

While LA residents have been joking that such days with AT&T in the city are just called Sundays, company spokespeople have confirmed that there were issues with the power at more than a 1000 cell phone towers, which brought on the wireless service disruption. That sounds like a huge number, so quite a lot of people must have been affected. Did you feel the AT&T outage in LA over the weekend?
