Judge approves the sale. http://www.philly.com/philly/business/h ... b.htmlwell the plot thins...then thickens, then thins some more, etc.I see here it says that the company has plans to buy "several" former AC casinos (including showboat) and "do something with them"????    What are they planning, to refurbish and re-open two or three casinos in AC and somehow re-attract all the people who have abandoned AC in the last 6-7 years???    I would love to see it happen, but realistically, how on earth do they hope to achieve this??   the ONLY way I see it happening is for them to open up a couple (or 3) casinos dedicated to offering INCREDIBLY good incentives and value for former players/gamblers in order to attract them back to AC....this means LOTS of free play, comps and comp dollars, free food, rooms etc.    and not just a few months of it, we are talking a sustained campaign of "good values" for all the people who took their bankrolls and went to Pennsylvania!

Here's the latesthttp://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/news/breaki ... 6ae1d.html   http://www.pressofatlanticcity.com/news ... f.htmlwhat a mess.....here you have a legit, important and worthwhile entity (stockton college) who is willing and able to turn one of ACs defunct casinos into something besides another casino (in this case a college which will contribute to Atlantic city's long term growth, employee people and have students and employees spending on the local economy), being thwarted by Trump.....keeping in mind that Trump Taj itself almost went under (and still might!)      I mean, this is kinda ridiculous, no?   Everything AC gets involved with or in these days has some huge glitch
