Mohegan Sun and Foxwoods Resort Casino are not mincing any words as they begin battle against the casinos of Atlantic City.
In fact, they”™re putting their words in large letters on billboards along major highways.
“Two worlds beat one city.”
“Way beyond the boredwalk.”
“Escape the Jersey snore.”
As the recession has hit the gaming industry, the two Connecticut casinos have seen declining revenue. As a result, the Mohegan and Mashantucket tribes have even teamed up for a web site, www.playctcasinos.com.
We await to see how the Atlantic City casinos reply.
We understand some of the billboards that didn”™t make the cut were:
“Only those from Boise go to Joisey.”
“Jersey, that”™s a cow isn”™t it?”
Surely they”™ll play nice, those casino people from New Jersey, if they decide to retaliate.
