Louisiana’s riverboat casinos used to be legally required to cruise the state’s waterways, though managers often came up with excuses to stay dockside where they could make more money. The cruising requirement was eliminated in 2001, but state law still said most casino facilities had to be housed in river-adjacent boats. While casinos in Louisiana can reopen as early as Monday, management at DiamondJacks announced late last week the Bossier City riverboat casino would stay closed for good.
