So how did this monstrosity come about?įoxwoods Casino began in spirit, in 1983. They continually battle to one-up each other, a tradition dating back to when the tribes were actually tribes and used to kill each other. To give you an idea of just how out-of-place this place really is…įoxwoods and Mohegan Sun are both located in semi-rural southeastern Connecticut. And that’s just slot revenue they rake in tens of millions more from table games, of course. I’m happy to report that CTMQ has contributed $0.00 to that tally. Mind you, each casino averages about $70-80 million dollars in revenue per month. And the state’s stake in the gaming here is equally absurd Connecticut collects only 25% of slot revenue (only) from the two behemoth casinos. While I fully support the Native American cause, I think gaming to “pay back” the debt is absurd. I don’t really gamble, as giving money away at the rate of 25 bucks a minute isn’t really my idea of fun. I, however, am fairly ambivalent towards them. But I won’t – most either love them or hate them and my silly blog isn’t going to sway you one way or another. I could probably write a 3000 word missive about Connecticut’s two MASSIVE casinos and their real economic effects on the state.
