Well I can say that those people who would of flown to Vegas or driven to Atlantic City from the Pittsburgh area pretty much put a stop to it since we opened slot gaming here in Pa. The numbers that the Pa casinos are seeing are just beyond anything I would of expected. It doesnt matter what time of the day you go to the Meadows casino there will be a crowd, and thats in a temporary building with 1850 slots. The fix casino building will house 5,000 machines with the possibilty of table games.
All you hear from people is why do I need to go to Vegas or AC when we have slots here. Again Vegas and AC are "apples to oranges" compared to slot only casinos in Pa but do the math.
