Louisiana Casino Reopening Scheduled for May 18th

Players may have to wait just a bit longer for a Louisiana casino reopening. The first phase of the state opening up after the Coronavirus will begin on May 15th, but gambling facilities will not be allowed to welcome guests until the following Monday, May 18th.

However, just because they are allowed to reopen does not necessarily mean they will reopen. There’s concern among casino operators about not only being limited to 25% capacity. They also can only have 25% of their games operating.

David Strow, spokesman for Boyd Gaming, which owns Sam’s Town, said the company is excited about the chance to reopen. But he went on to say, “We’re still receiving directions on reopening from state officials. No reopening date is set yet. We’re still working through protocols.”
