Local Gambling Revenue Increases

The Ohio Casino Control Commission says a busy three-day weekend helped boost revenue at two gambling establishments in Central Ohio.The commission says the Columbus casino took in more than 18-million-dollars last month, while the Scioto Downs racino took in eleven-million-dollars. Both figures are increases over January's revenue, in part because of the traditionally busy President's Day weekend.
