Wyandotte Tribe brazen on casino

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 17, 2002

"No cloak of darkness for these guys. No shame-faced sneaking into back doors or collars pulled high. That's not their style.

So Thursday, when the Wyandotte Tribe of Oklahoma made a surprise, and possibly illegal, delivery of 200 slot machines to downtown Kansas City, Kan., all to prepare for the opening of a casino that may or may not happen, they chose the light of day.

Not that the tribe believes it has anything to hide. . ."
