The so-named Bristol Casino is the first brick-and-mortar casino to open its doors on Virginian soil, although it is set to be followed by facilities in three other cities – Danville, Norfolk and Portsmouth. This news will have made particularly sweet reading for the state treasury, which is understood to have benefited to the tune of more than $600,000 in taxes from the first week alone.
The first fully-fledged casino to open in Virginia has reported brisk business through its first week of trading, with Hard Rock’s Bristol casino building on the positive vibes from its initial soft opening to take in upwards of $37.5 million in its first full week of trading.
