Default PA Gaming Control Board to consider Gettysburg gambling slots again

Investors seek slots license in Gettysburg

Could Gettysburg be the next location in Pennsylvania to get approved for slots?

Gettysburg businessman Dave LeVan and a group of unidentified investors are seeking a Category III slots license.

That category restricts the size of a facility to no more than 500 machines limits patronage to hotel guests, or pass-holders.

The Gaming Control Board rejected a LeVan-backed project in 2006 because of its proximity to the Gettysburg Battlefield.

What do you think. I think Gettysburg shouldn't get them. Too special a place.

This time, investors are eyeing the 307-room Eisenhower Inn and Conference Center in Cumberland Township as a possible location. That land already has commercial development on it.

You know what, good for Pennsylvania. New Jokesey had enough time with the monopoly of gambling and did nothing with it. Now other States around us have the right to do this as well.

Shame on New Jokesey. See, sold gambling as a "It's for Education, It's for the Seniors", and got nothing in return. Hasn't helped fund education as well as helping seniors afford to live here.

Just my opinion.
