Apparently this happens a lot there. Found out they don't have a lot of carriers in Rapid City so some phones pick up the tower in Sioux Falls which is a different time zone!

my phone was messed up too at&t stayed at the buffallo chip and i had to hold arm up and jump up and down to get a signal

Is there another AT&T user that was as pissed of at their carrier as I was???

I wasn't at Sturgis, but had same experience with AT&T last month in the Smokies. No AT&T service at Iron Horse campground, but other carriers were working fine.
