From the Niagara Falls Review:
Putting more bums in more seats could be part of Niagara Fallsview Casino Resort’s recipe for keeping its gamblers happy.
Falls Management Co., is considering adding a 5,000-seat entertainment centre to the casino, said casino spokesman Greg Medulun.
“Entertainment complexes are critical and important drivers for the casino industry,” Medulun said.
Ontario Lottery and Gaming recently authorized Falls Management to hire a consultant to look into adding a new entertainment centre. Niagara Casinos president Art Frank gave hundreds of casino associates an update on the situation Monday.
Frank was chief executive officer at Casino Rama, near Orillia, when that casino built a 5,000-seat entertainment centre and hotel worth $225 million in 2001.
