The latest episode of "As the Catskill Casino World Turns" has the Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of Oklahoma looking for a casino in the nearby village of Saugerties.
The tribe has proposed a casino in the Catskills under a deal with Empire Resorts, a gaming compact. But now the tribe is eying a site near the 1994 Woodstock concert after being alerted by another developer.
The idea has some officials very worried but others say they should keep an open mind. An Ulster County plans to create a committee to discuss the proposal. An opposition group, No Saugerties Casino, has already formed.
