A syndicated Santa Fe, New Mexico columnist recently wrote an anti-gaming column that mentioned the following. I don't know how much is rumor and how much is fact:
"(the) Nambe (tribe), with no major highway access, bought frontage property from Pojoaque Pueblo and will build UFO-themed Stargate Casino."
"...Jemez Pueblo (propose)...a casino near Anthony...nearly 300 miles from the reservation...chances of success appear slim..."
"...Picuris Pueblo....is teaming with an Albuquerque promoter, and possibly the huge Mohegan Sun casino in Connecticut, to propose a casino near Chaparral, east of Anthony."
"There is even talk about something happening at Santa Teresa, New Mexico...just west of El Paso..."
"...a group of investors want to build a new horse track and casino...south of Raton on I-25..."
"...Pojoaque Pueblo is moving along with its plan to reopen Santa Fe Downs...and a group in Tucumcari is still expressing interest in a track."
By the way, if you're looking for any of these New Mexico chips, check with me as I have some for sale or trade.
