WASHINGTON -- Americans gambled more in 2001 despite the recession and the terrorism-caused economic slowdown, the American Gaming Association reported today.
The trade group said gross annual revenue for the commercial casino industry climbed to $25.7 billion in 2001, up from $24.3 billion in 2000.
There were 433 such non-Indian casinos in 11 states across the country last year, the AGA said.
