The Lac du Flambeau Band of Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin have purchased 92.7 acres for an $80 million off-reservation casino.
The tribe bought the land for about $320,000, according to The Wisconsin State Journal. The land is located near Shullsburg, a small tourism-oriented city in Lafayette County.
