Foxwoods Resort Casino Mashantucket, Connecticut
Foxwoods Resort Casino is owned and operated by the Mashantucket Pequot Tribal Nation and is located on its reservation in southeastern Connecticut. Foxwoods began in 1986 as a high stakes Bingo parlor.
The casino was opened in 1992 offering table games only. In 1993, the Pequots made a deal with the State of Connecticut that allowed them to install slot machines in return for 25% of the revenue generated from the machine’s profits.
In the following 17 years Foxwoods has grown to become the largest casino in the United States and second largest in the world behind the Venetian Casino in Macau, China.
Casino size is measured by actual gaming space and Foxwoods has 340, 000 square feet of gaming space which houses over 380 table games, 7, 400 slot machines and a 104-table poker room.
Foxwoods is a unique resort/gaming destination set in the beautiful woods of Connecticut, but still close to dozens of Connecticut’s other vacation attractions. It has something to offer everyone including: fine dining, major entertainment, golf, shopping and of course some of the best gambling in New England.
The sprawling resort has been a work in progress since its beginning and every time they expand it is like a new casino has been added. In fact, their web site proclaims that they have six casinos within the property.
