FRIDAY, MARCH 7, 2003 The Havasupai Tribe of Arizona won't be opening a casino in its home in the Grand Canyon any time soon but that doesn't mean the remote and small tribe won't benefit from gaming. The tribe sold its 475 slot machine rights to two urban tribes with successful casinos. Tribal chairman Don Watahomigie said the deal will increase tribal revenues by 30 percent every year. Without the slots, the tribe has to rely solely on tourism. Get the Story:
