When I visited Detroit<\/strong>, the official position of MGM Grand Detroit<\/strong> was that its vacated temporary casino (formerly an IRS<\/strong> building) could be re-activated as a casino, if MGM so chose. I guess they chose otherwise. Yes, this roulette table could yours for a mere thousand clams. Come on down<\/em>!<\/p>\n

Bankruptcy in Bossier City<\/strong>. There’s been a malaise in that Louisiana market ever since Class III gaming started to make inroads in Oklahoma<\/strong>, threatening Bossier City<\/strong>‘s key feeder markets, like Dallas-Fort Worth<\/strong>. Now an ex-Isle of Capri<\/strong> riverboat casino<\/a> has hit a financial shoal<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Blackballed on the Strip?<\/strong> Or maybe you’re just having a hard time breaking in? No matter. The Seminoles<\/strong> need a few good dealers<\/a> (3,650, to be precise) and they’re going at least as far as Atlantic City<\/strong> to find them, maybe even to Las Vegas<\/strong>, they say.\u00a0(I mean, we’ve only got, what, six Columbia Sussex<\/strong> properties here? The Seminoles will have those 3,650 dealers in nothing flat.)<\/p>\n

But if you’re really hard up for comedians<\/strong> (and maybe too cheap to buy an ad), you can always put your phone number in a Las Vegas Review-Journal<\/em> and risk being inundated by every bad standup comedian with an Internet connection, a mouse and a telephone. Heck, Fitzgerald<\/strong>‘s did<\/a>. That’s 702\/388-2400 and ask for Gene Sagas<\/strong>. I’ll be expecting S&G<\/em>‘s usual 10% commission if you get the gig, OK?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
