You will have to wait two years, but a casino is coming to Kansas City. The Kansas Lottery Gaming Facility Review Board approved a project worth over $500 million that will bring a casino to the Kansas City area. Penn National Gaming, Inc. and International Speedway Corp. have partnered together to open the casino in the first quarter of 2012. The casino will have slot machines and will host games such as blackjack and poker.

What do you think about the casino coming to Kansas City?

    I think this will be a decent addition to the Village West/Speedway area. However, this proposal is much smaller than the previous proposals that included hotels and far more amenties. If I recall correctly the previous plan for this spot was a huge Hard Rock Hotel & Casino – that would have been cool. Also, the KC area already has 4 other casinos, though they’re all on the MO side. I wonder how this new one will affect them?
