Casino industry mourns Michael Jackson
26th June, 2009
Upon hearing the news of Michael Jackson’s sudden passing, the gambling industry and in particular casino operators are saddened by the news.
Michael, who performed in Las Vegas on number occassions was set to launch a new Las Vegas casino next year themed around his multi platinum award winning album, Thriller. The casino planned to replicate sets from the unforgettable video of Thriller and would feature Zombies behind slot machines and employees roaming around dressed as, “the living dead” like in the ground breaking video.
Michael Jackson was never an avid gambler; however the idea of building a casino in his honour greatly interested him. It is not known whether the build will still go ahead, but if it does, his loyal fans are almost guaranteed to flock to it in his memory.
