The Forest County Potawatomi Tribe of Wisconsin has seen casino revenue fall for the second year in a row, The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reports. The Potawatomi Hotel & Casino took in $352 million in the fiscal year that ended June 30, the paper said. That's down from $363 million last year. Revenues peaked at $370 million in 2009, when the recession hit the nation. Like many others in Indian Country, the tribe has not fully recovered from the economic crisis. The tribe is opening a 19-floor, 381-room hotel at the casino on Monday. Get the Story:
