Mississippi Coastal Casinos Closing at 2am...

#1 Postby Ixolib » Sat Aug 27, 2005 8:06 pm

Per the Mississippi Gaming Commission, all coastal casinos will halt casino operations and close to the public at 2am on Sunday morning, August 28. Further, all hotels associated with the properties will close at 9am on Sunday and all guests will be directed leave the premesis no later than that time.

That's about 18,000 folks who won't be working on Sunday or Monday for sure. Only time will tell how long they (and me & the wife) will be "off work" after that...

Here's a little article I wrote for the February '05 S2K newsletter on the topic...

Ixolib,

I hope the impact on the casinos won't be as devastating as I fear it may be. Good luck to you and your wife, I hope the two of you won't be unemployed for very long. God Speed
