Interesting Information About the Cato Casino

According to a 2004 article in the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel, the Lac du Flambeau Chippewa tribe, along with some Chicago investors, bought a floating casino to be called the Dream Catcher. Then according to another article in 2006

"the tribe - which has spent years scouring the country in search of an off-reservation casino deal - found a buyer that was willing to pay $3 million 'in cash or other consideration' for the Dream Catcher. The other consideration appears to have been a chance for the tribe to buy into a casino being developed near Natchez, Miss."

According to the same article, apparently the tribe is trying to get rid of its Chicago investors, who sued the tribe.

Now read Natchez - The Beginning or the End posted today by a tribe blogger, and you'll see some funny things may be happening with this deal.

Absolutely frightening! But, not suprising. Greedy men (and women) are looking out for anything to fatten their bank accounts...even if it's rotten meat lying at the base of the bridge, below or atop the bluff. Vultures come to mind.
