South Dakota tribes see drop in gaming revenues

Wednesday, August 27, 2008  

South Dakota tribes saw a 3 percent drop in gaming revenues, according to the latest Indian Gaming Industry Report.

Economist Alan Meister of the Analysis Group said tribes took in $97.1 million at their casinos in 2007. That's a drop of $3 million from 2006, when revenues also fell.

The Class III gaming compact limits each tribe to 250 slot machines. Non-Indian facilities have been allowed to expand their slot operations.
