Column: Casino revenues better post-pandemic, still on sick list – Champaign News-Gazette*

Jim Dey: "While the revenue numbers are up in the aftermath of the pandemic, Illinois’ casino revenues for the 2021-’22 fiscal year ($1.307 billion) failed to equal revenues generated in the 2011-’12 fiscal year ($1.641 billion). The good revenue news is that the $1.3 billion generated in 2021-’22 represents a strong increase over the pandemic-related revenue declines."
