The Federated Indians of Graton Rancheria opens the $825 million Graton Resort and Casino at 10am tomorrow. The 300,000 square-foot facility will be the largest tribal casino in the state. It's expected to generate $1 billion in revenues in the first two years alone. “This is Godzilla,” attorney Dennis Whittlesey told The Santa Rosa Press-Democrat. “This is the bear – no, make that the $800 million gorilla,” Ken Adams, a Las Vegas-based gaming analyst, told The Sacramento Bee. “It certainly is going to grow the total amount of gaming revenue in California." The casino is about 50 miles north of San Francisco. Get the Story:
