Katrina might have been the hammer that busted that up.

I don't remember that.
I remember there was a license (issued by the state) and a lease (issued by the city). Two different processes. And when it ended, Harrah's had one, and Caesar's Entertainment (teamed locally with Christopher Hemmetter) had the other (I don't recall which is which).
So that was a big problem. They ended up teaming together to own the casino under the Harrah's flag, and eventually, Harrah's bought out the others.

I also remember how riverboat gaming in Louisiana, including Harrah's land-based casino approval, was going to SAVE Louisiana's Education woes.
somethings never change.

Harrah's will eventually have sports gambling but not until we get the frauds out of LA politics who are receiving benefits.
So, Harrah's will never have sports gambling.

As I have wondered why they haven't used all that land for a golf course. Seems like a golf course would bring in much more business...
Golf courses are dead. Let alone, ones in LA

Or sell that land to Top Golf and let them open a location right there. Would be killer, IMO.
We just opened a top golf in br
