Local publicity being generated on the benefits of the nine miles of highway completion and the revamped Fitzgerald's which is largely owned and operated by former Isle of Capri executives. Now I loathed the Isle of Capris in its post-Katrina days since it was a notorious Sweat The Money joint and quite frankly I won't be visiting Fitzgeralds no matter what they have done to it for either physical gambling or online gambling.

They can issue all the press releases they want.... all I think of is that the Isle was the only place I came close to telling the stick man that we were going to take a trip to the parking lot.

Even when I got frisked in Vegas or ridiculed by a cage clerk, I never lost my temper but Biloxi.... .

Yeah. I just gotta stop posting when I'm sober.
Fitzgeralds is in Tunica but the company is headquartered in Gulfport and the execs used to work at Beau Rivage and at Isle of Capri in Biloxi,,, so as usual I got confused.

Thanks for the info. So what 9 mile road are you talking about? Hoping for a direct road between I-22 and Tunica County.

Thanks for that link, the road opens up this month, no more back roads between I-22 and Tunica!

Wonder if the billboard advertising the Johnny Cochran law group still exists on US61 south of Memphis?
