'''Big Smoke's Crack Palace''' is the home of [[Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas]] character [[Big Smoke]] and is used as a crack palace by the [[Ballas]], [[Los Santos Vagos]] and the [[Russian Mafia]], and as a front to sell drugs around the city, mostly crack cocaine, hence the name, while their enemies, the [[Grove Street Families]] are disbanded, [[Ganton]] is owned by the [[Ballas]], [[Carl Johnson|Carl]] taken away by [[Frank Tenpenny]] and [[Eddie Pulaski]] and [[Sweet]] is imprisoned. The power of [[Big Smoke]] increases with the drug trade from the Crack Palace to all over [[Los Santos in GTA III Era|Los Santos]]. The building is located in [[East Los Santos in GTA III Era|East Los Santos]], [[Los Santos in GTA III Era|Los Santos]]. Big Smoke moves into the building sometime after [[Carl Johnson]] is forced to [[Green Sabre|leave]] Los Santos. The other front of Big Smoke's drug empire, second to the Crack Palace, is the yay factory in [[Doherty]], [[San Fierro]], destroyed by Carl Johnson in the mission [[Yay Ka-Boom-Boom]]. In the mission [[End of the Line]], Carl Johnson enters the building and kills [[Big Smoke]], before [[Frank Tenpenny]] destroys part of the building. The building can be accessed after the mission [[End of the Line]]. There are also [[Sprunk]] vending machines inside the crack palace. The statue that is in the picture, is how [[Big Smoke]] was actually going to be depicted as seen in the first trailer of San Andreas. | |||
==Glitches== | |||
*On the PlayStation 2, the entrance to Big Smoke's Crack Palace can be blown off with any sort of high level explosive ([[Rocket Launcher]]'s and [[Remote Grenade]]s for example, regular [[Grenades]] and car explosions do not work) before [[End of the Line]], which reveals [[Blue Hell]]. However, this was fixed when the game came out on the PC. | |||
*When shooting the statue of Big Smoke, as seen in the picture, the sparks that come out look a bit like blood. | |||
*Whereas Tenpenny destroyed the machinery in the drug lab during the events of End of the Line, it cannot be destroyed in normal gameplay. | |||
==Trivia== | |||
*After the mission [[King In Exile]], [[Cesar Vialpando|Cesar]] calls CJ and informs him that Big Smoke expands his business to [[San Fierro]] by sending a courier from the Crack Palace to deliver drugs there. If CJ responds positively, a mission starts and CJ has to kill the courier on his way to San Fierro. That depicts that Big Smoke had decided to move to the Crack Palace before [[The Green Sabre]], because [[King In Exile]] is made in a very short time after [[The Green Sabre]]. That can be explained, because in [[The Introduction]], in a conversation between [[Mike Toreno]] and [[T-Bone Mendez]], Toreno says that he found "[[Big Smoke|a buyer]]" from [[Los Santos in GTA III Era|Los Santos]], meaning that Big Smoke had ties to the [[Loco Syndicate]] before the game even started. | |||
*The crack palace is made up of four floors, the "Security Area", the "Drug Lab", the "Ballas Lounge" and Big Smoke's suite, as depicted in the mission "[[End of the Line]]". | |||
*Even though the Crack Palace was blown up during the last mission it is still accessible after without a bit of damage | |||
