Connecticut tribes see slight dip in slot revenues

Tuesday, November 17, 2009  

Connecticut's two federally recognized tribes reported a drop in slot machine revenues for the month of October, though the downward trend appears to be slowing.

The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, owners of Foxwoods Resort Casino and MGM Grand at Foxwoods, won $54.8 million on slot machines. That's down about 4 percent from October 2008, an improvement over the double-digit declines the tribe has seen over the past year.

The Mohegan Tribe, owners of Mohegan Sun, won $62.9 million. That's down 3.8 percent from last year, also another improvement from the past year.
