Crowd
Packs IP Casino's Grand Reopening
As reported by the Biloxi Sun
Herald: "A crowd of impatient gamblers
rushed into the IP Casino just after 11 a.m.
Thursday, a reopening that was delayed two hours

"…The
casino's new poker room remained closed, but
the surveillance cameras may be repaired in
24 to 48 hours, said Larry Gregory, executive
director of the Mississippi Gaming Commission.
"…The
people at the front of the lines included drive-in
gamblers from Alabama and Florida. Air flights
in and out of the Gulfport-Biloxi International
Airport are almost up to their pre-Katrina levels
so gamblers also can fly into Biloxi…"
