LV-based casino companies reopen Mississippi Gulf Coast properties after hurricane

The Mississippi Gaming Commission allowed the state’s casinos to reopen at 1 p.m., Wednesday, after ordering them closed for 45 hours.

Sally made landfall Wednesday morning as a Category 2 storm at Orange Beach, Alabama, about 100 miles east of Gulfport and Biloxi, the home of Mississippi’s 12 Gulf Coast casinos. Storm-watchers were expecting Sally to hit the Mississippi coast headon, 16 years to the day from when Hurricane Ivan ripped through the area. Instead, the path was farther east.
