“Just as the Racing Commission selected our superior application in 2020 in a head-to-head with Legends, we look forward to demonstrating again to county leaders and residents how our proposed world-class resort will benefit them and the entire state,” Casey Castleberry, attorney for Gulfside Casino Partnership, said in a statement. The Gulfside application had been submitted with the backing of Pope County’s former judge. The Cherokee Tribal Bingo hall is now open 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. The hall is now decked out in new colors and has a new look, with a new logo and brand.
Gulfside had been issued a license for the casino in 2020, but that license was voided after the state Supreme Court said it needed to have the endorsement of current elected officials in the area. The Cherokee Tribal Bingo hall has reopened, after being closed for a few months for renovations. Ruth's Chris Steak House in the Harrah's Casino in Cherokee, NC serves the finest USDA Prime beef available, broiled at 1,800 and served on 500 plates, so your steak stays hot, juicy and delicious from first bite to last. Mississippi-based Gulfside Casino Partnership, a competing applicant, had filed the lawsuit challenging the license. Now Open: We look forward to serving you soon.
“We are fully committed to moving forward and working with local and state officials as we have been for the past five years to build Legends Resort & Casino and bring the much-needed economic growth the community and state deserves,” Chuck Garrett, CEO of Cherokee Nation Businesses, said in a statement.
