Connecticut tribes report another drop in slot revenue

Tuesday, March 16, 2010  

Connecticut's two federally recognized tribes saw a drop in their slot machine revenues for the month of February.

The Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation, owner of Foxwoods Resort Casino and MGM Grand at Foxwoods, reported $51.6 million in slot revenues. That's down 11.1 percent from February 2009.

The Mohegan Tribe, owner of Mohegan Sun, reported $58 million in revenues. That's down 7.7 percent from last year.

A Mohegan executive attributed the numbers to bad weather that kept customers away.
