Indiana Casinos are suffering, for the second month in a row, as national inflation reaches a new high.
The Indiana Gaming Commission says that casino revenue is declining.
They’re looking at casino revenue after winners are paid.
May has seen an 8% decrease, successful bettors were paid totaled $211.9 million compared to April.
April had seen an 11%, at $229.1 million, a decrease since March.
According to the Gaming Commission, that’s a big difference from last year, where casino wins were growing, from $209 million in March 2021 to $211.7 million in April 2021, and grew again to $220.8 million in May 2021.
The top-earning casino is the Hard Rock Casino in Gary.
Coming in second is the Horseshow Casino in Hammond.

I don’t understand why people go to casinos and lose money. Most people work hard for their money and shouldn’t be throwing it away to these places. Take care of your bills and your family first. If you want to give away money, give it to people that need help, not casinos.
It’s quite a statement when Brandon’s economy is making CASINOS unprofitable…
