Slot Machine Revenue in PA up 16% in February

Nothing gets between a gambler and a trip to the casino.

Despite two huge snowstorms that paralyzed major parts of the state, tax revenue from the play of slot machines at the Commonwealth's nine casinos was nearly 16% higher in February this year over February of 2009, according to the Pennsylvania Gaming Control Board.

The nine slot machine facilities operating in Pennsylvania during February of this year collectively generated $168,279,514 in gross revenue, compared to $145,579,665 in February of 2009 when seven casinos were in operation, the board reported. That's an increase of 15.59%.
