Don't wait by the phone if you've got a date with Pinnacle Entertainment. It has just pushed back the timelines on its Baton Rouge and Lake Charles projects by five months. It cited investor reluctance and warned more delays are likely.
Analysts like few gaming stocks and one of those lucky few is Penn National. But a Morgan Joseph analyst thinks Penn has gone about as high as it should and perhaps too high. The sparked an early sell-off of PENN, thankfully followed by a rally.
One more thing to blame on casinos. The tighty righties (and lefties) are going to have a field day with this. It's a windfall of free publicity for Foxwods Resort Casino, though.
The mouth that snored: How far over the shark has casino mogul-turned-TV performer Donald Trump jumped? Would you believe he was "spotted dozing off during Paul McCartney's concert Sunday at The Joint at the Hard Rock Hotel," according to gossip columnist Norm(!) Clarke. By all accounts, the McCartney show was far and away one of the most electrifying concerts given in Vegas in quite some time, launching Joint 2.0 in style. Sleepy Uncle Trump, though, officially qualifies for fuddy-duddy status.
Mike Weatherford, author of Cult Vegas, has a refreshingly contrarian take on the Criss Angel brouhaha from last weekend. Both MGM Mirage and Cirque du Soleil knew what they were getting (or at least thought they did) when they signed Angel. The real disgrace here, IMO, is that it took Cirque nearly 72 hours to crawl forward with an apology. D'ya mean to say they actually had to think it over? Ridiculous ... though not as ridiculous as the amount of oxygen being consumed by the Carrie Prejean kerfuffle. Would the vaudeville hook please drag that Stepford Wife-to-be and her have-they-nothing-better-to-do detractors off the stage, please?
(Prominently visible in at least one clip from the show was Treasure Island owner Phil Ruffin, separated from Old Man Trump by a stunning beauty whom I took to be Mrs. Ruffin. Whoever she was, the leading pageant contestants weren't a patch on her.)
