      Comments Off on DFAW #275: Irish Pub Status Watch

On episode 275 of the Atlantic City Podcast, Kyle and Craig say if they’d rather be in AC for the first weekend of the NCAA Tournament or the divisional round of the NFL playoffs. Then they discuss the St. Patrick’s Day Parade marking the unofficial start of spring, Maya and Biergarten opening for the season, and the status of The Irish Pub (which promised to be open in plenty of time for St. Patrick’s Day).

Also, ACX1 has filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy protection, the CRDA reluctantly approved plans to turn half the Sheraton into senior housing, and the February casino revenue came out.

Finally, a listener wonders whether it’s possible for gambling conditions to get so bad that players stop going to AC and Vegas.
