Email* Submit No one could mistake the Margaritaville Resort Casino in Bossier City, La., for a Ritz-Carlton or Four Seasons. One online reviewer complained last month that their room was "tired," with cigarette burns in the carpet, a dirty toilet and dust on the lights. But a weekend stay this month at the property along the Red River costs as much as $429 a night, reflecting the boom times that casinos across the U.S. are enjoying as patrons, particularly younger ones, begin to splurge with the money socked away during the pandemic. Gambling revenue at the Margaritaville, which opened in 2013, more than tripled to $19.7 million in March from $6.5 million a year earlier. Month-to-month, the increase was 52%, according to Louisiana state records.
