This tid-bit was buried in an email I got from the Insider Viewpoint of Las Vegas dated 1/26/04;

* This past Thursday saw the finalized deal between Harrah's Casino buying the Binions Horseshoe Casino. Interesting note . . . The Nevada Gaming Control Board has not received an application from Harrah's to reopen
the casino.

Anybody want to suffice a reason as to why you wouldn't want to reopen one of the most famous downtown LV landmarks?
