At one time, I think it was in 2007, it was announced that NASCAR chose a sight to build a track. Guess they scrapped that idea. I was coming up in Clarksdale and back then in the late 90s to early 2000s, the casinos was a resort that we took for income. Robinsonville was really booming and had it together. The first casino was actually in the Town of Tunica in 1992 and it was called Splash. Not sure what caused their fate, but shortly after that, one after another, the casinos started rolling in. Isle of Capri was the first to leave, but was force to exit because they violated their privilege of serving alcohol to someone under 21. Without their alcohol license they felt there was no point to staying open because alcohol fuels gambling. The others remained strong for over a decade and things started slowly declining at around 2010. The 2011 floods didn't help. 2012 was the year when the slight decline became a vertical drop. Now look at Robinsonville. Blank billboards everywhere! Just to think, it was once said that Robinsonville was on the verge of competing with Vegas. I've been living in Texas since 2008 and went through Tunica for the first time in years just a couple of months ago. I just didn't believe all of the post on KZbin over the years until I saw it with my very own eyes... In ruins! It was like driving through another Great Depression. The decline of the casinos really did a number on North Delta. There is a silver lining, though. Tunica County has so much potential. Though mostly crop land, thanks to The Mississippi River, the county is a beautiful place. I'm actully shocked that KOA never invested there as Tunica County is convieniently located just below Memphis where I 40 is minutes away. The question is that is any big business willing to tap into it and soon? Just a joke in a way, Disney was considering finding a location out of Florida just recently due to the one thing that ruins dinner at the table...Politics. Perhapes they should consider looking at Robinsonville. Winter time can be rough in this area, but winter weather is better than dealing with destructive hurricanes every year. Thank you for your video!

When so many other nearby states legalized casino gambling, Tunica took a mighty big hit. When casino gambling came to Tunica in the early 1990s, there were only 2 other gambling meccas in the United States - Las Vegas and Atlantic City, NJ. People were coming into Tunica by the busloads from all over the South and Lower Midwest. Tunica was hot. The casinos were busy. The hotels and restraunts were full, and the future was bright. Everybody had such high hopes for Tunica. It had come such a long way from the days of having the distinction of being the poorest county in the United States. I bet Tunica's business today is half to 2/3rds what it was in the 1990's and early 2000's. Several casinos have closed over the past several years. The nearly vacant outlet mall is collateral damage. When I was in Tunica in September, they were in the process of tearing down a casino that was across from the Hollywood Hotel Casino.

Oh wow...this is way up north. Since they have a casino I thought this was somewhere near Biloxi but I was way off 😂 I really like watching your videos 👍 because I plan to move to Ms. from always freezing 🥶 Ohio in a couple years.

[@Chocolazulu]

👍 Agree with mother p keep the video coming thanks

[@InTheseStreetz]

Will do!

[@i-35vagabond56]

I stayed at Hollywood Casino for $50 a night last September, driving from Austin to Nashville. On the interstate, the rooms were about twice that amount and not near as nice. It's about 40 miles out of the way, but well worth the discount.

I’ve won a lot of “Jackpots” in Tunica. I go about 6 times a year.

[@InTheseStreetz]

Whew! What's the secret? I'll be making my way back down there next month.

[@kevinmitchell8679]

No slots, just table games(blackjack, etc.

[@jaredwhite4927]

The reason I would normally be headed to Tunica Ms is to go to my farm eat those delicious crab legs,those delicious cheese burgers go mega whitetail deer hunting and see some of those beautiful women

[@InTheseStreetz]

[@erikhoogstad6520]

Tunica is dead. The rumor is that when the Las Vegas people left. The locals took over and it died.

[@manuvns]
