Thats the casino close to the baseball stadium, there has always been a lot of activity (police) whenever we go by it. It seems kind of shady to me.

Being a cynic, I assumed that there was an issue concerning mordida or something along those lines... But that's just me. I could be wrong.

Getting a permit for a casino is very expensive and takes a long time....maybe someone took some shortcuts that came back to bite.
