Biloxi Casino ?

#1 Postby jjfl » Tue Aug 30, 2005 12:12 pm

I know that the casino industry supports a very high percentage of families in the mississippi gulf coast area. Has anyone heard a report on the status of the casino area??? Many people look to lose there homes, but to lose your job on top of it really sucks! It is really hard to re-build your life with no income.....

most casinos were severly damaged. The new Hard Rock slated to open this week will have to be rebuilt.

They just showed this on MSNBC. Most if not all of the casinos had significant damage. The residential area behind them was flattened. Think Homestead after Andrew.

Very sad.
