Circus Circus Casino Wins Permanent Reopen
LAS VEGAS Nevada AP The Circus Circus Casino has been granted permission to remain open permanently after a temporary license and a near shutdown last month. The casino opened in a 12 million purple and white tent shaped building with trapeze performers and child friendly concessions. The Gaming Commission had ordered a close on April 30 due to undisclosed loans, but an extension followed a stockholder selling his stake. New owners say finances are settled and a permanent license will calm employees and creditors.
